The Overtones - Topsy Turvy Town lyrics

When you look to the front you see to the rear (in topsy-turvy town) When you open your eyes that when you can hear (in topsy-turvy town) And things that are far away really are near in topsy-turvy town! When you say "come on in" you mean "go away" (in topsy-turvy town) When the sun starts to rise that's the end of the day (in topsy-turvy town) And Santa Claus comes in the middle of May in topsy-turvy town! (Bridge) Everyone in topsy-turvy town wears shoes up on their head. And when they rise to greet the day -- they jump right into bed. All the trees are so short and the grass is so tall (in topsy-turvy town) And when they run a race they run at a crawl (in topsy-turvy town) They call it a crowd when there's no one at all in topsy-turvy town! (Bridge) Everyone in topsy-turvy town will laugh when they are sad, But you should see the teardrops fall -- whenever they are glad! When the bell start to ring the clock is run down (in topsy-turvy town) All the cows are blue and the river is brown. (in topsy-turvy town) The mayor wears rags and the beggars are in topsy-turvy town! In topsy-turvy ...(instrumental)... topsy-turvy town!
