What An Upside-Down World It's Become
(written to be sung to the tune of “What a Wonderful World it Would Be” as sung by Sam Cooke, but I first heard it in the 60's by Herman's Hermits)
Don’t know much about politics.
Only know there are lots of di#ks.
Hardly know why these kinds of guys
cause division and lead with lies.
But I do know the things I see.
One and one don’t add up to three.
What an upside-down world it’s become.
Not for certain about anything.
Whistle blowers are afraid to sing!
Trust no CDC or FBI.
Do they really protect us? (sigh)
But I do know the things I see.
One and one don’t add up to three.
What an upside-down world it’s become.
Well, I saw many prices rising fast.
But what did Biden say?
Blamed it all on Russia and smiled with big teeth.
I’m shocked by now we’ve not collapsed!
I do know about history.
Never long lives prosperity.
Loony speeches leave me with no doubt,
and I’m hoping that all truth will out!
For I do know the things I see.
One and one cannot add up to three.
What an upside-down world it’s become.
Dum dum dum dum dum dum dum (politics)
dum dee dum dee dum dee dum dee dum dee (lying guys)
Hmm Hmmmm – all those di#ks.
Have a burger with some fries . . .
And enjoy it while you can.
Reset’s coming. Will you have a dime?
What an upside-down world it’s become.
