Topsyturvey-world Lyrics - Natalie Merchant

If the butterfly courted the bee, 

And the owl the porcupine; 

If churches were built in the sea, 

And three times one was nine; 

If the pony rode his master, 

If the buttercups ate the cows, 

If the cat had the dire disaster 

To be worried by the mouse; 

If mama sold the baby 

To a gypsy for half a crown; 

If a gentleman was a lady,- 

The world would be Upside-Down! 

If any or all of these wonders 

Should ever come about, 

I should not consider them blunders, 

For I should be Inside-Out!
