Up and Down
The world is topsy, turvy, sometimes up and down.
So if you have the urge to smile, turn it into a frown.
Decide to answer yes, when in truth you want to say no.
If your intent was to stay, put it in reverse and go.
When ordering from a menu, choosing your favorite food
Order something that you don't like, change your attitude.
If you are someone who needs to have a plan.
Throw caution to the wind, see if you really can.
If you go to bed early, for no reason, stay up all night.
If you prefer darkness, well then, light up every light.
You may ask for what reason, am I to behave this way?
Don't ask, you answer, just wanted to be topsy turvy, for a day!
