What if all that we see turns upside down –
What will be on the other side of brown?
Will a clown still be a clown?
Will we remain fearful of a frown?
Where shall we go
If down is up and up is down?
What if all that we see turns upside down?

Will truth and lies go round and round?
Will spoofs then fly on wings of sound?
Will stanzas in love still astound?
We’ll get to see some roots for sure
A change in scene for those who top
Not stalked will be all that is pure
Is this the doctor that we search?
Is this our final cure?
