Topsy-Turvy.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. July 2000.

You frequently act topsy~turvily~wise,
yet no one could call you a clown,

Thus if you're in bed and the front door bell rings,
You got to get up to come down.

But say you are quietly sitting upstairs,
Amusing yourself with the pup,

And they bring round your horse for your afternoon ride,
Then you'll have to get down to get up.

Well, it seems very queer, yet it's perfectly clear,
And as sure as a penny is brown,

That you've got to get down if you want to get up,
And you've got to get up to get down.

If a lady gets into a bathing machine,
You wait for the fun to begin,

For you know that in order to dip in the sea,
She'll have to get out to get in.

And then when she wishes the water to quit,
For her bathing machine she will shout,

The reason of which is, of course, very plain,
For she'll have to get in to get out.

Well it seems very queer,
Yet it's perfectly clear,
And there isn't a shade of a doubt,

That you've got to get out, if you want to get in,
And you've got to get in to get out.

If, trying to bicycle up a steep hill,
Your breath and your power are gone,

You'll walk if you wish to proceed, that's to say,
You'll have to get off to get on.

And if you're out hunting and chance to dismount,
In scarlet, a regular toff,

And you suddenly find yourself chased by a bull,
Then you'll have to get on to get off.

Well it seems very queer,
Yet it's perfectly clear,

And no matter how people may scoff,
That you've got to get off if you want to get on,
And you've got to get on to get off.
