John T. Wurzer - Upside Down Lyrics

Guns are firing, in the hills. Echo like two clapping hands
Lovers lying very still, staring at a wedding band
Ugly Princess and the Royal staff, breaking bonds of trust
Someone ought to make them laugh before their cracked lips start to rust
Upside down and inside out, right side up and outside in
I haven't got an axe to grind; I only want to be your friend

Frogs are dancing on the moon, the crickets rub their eyes
Hoot owl sings Bob Dylan tunes, while the Tomcats harmonize
Wealthy banker robbed the bank, while the farmers begged for food
Piece of driftwood finally sank, with a Tom Waits attitude
Upside down and inside out, right side up and outside in
I haven't got an axe to grind; I only want to be your friend

The Prince was tearing off his crown, beggar selling stocks and bonds
Straight man had to turn around, to watch the wise man hunting blondes
Where's the story? What's the plot? Where's the moral to this rhyme
I can't tell you, I forgot. Stolen moments are such a crime
Upside down and inside out, right side up and outside in
I haven't got an axe to grind; I only want to be your friend

Wish I had a tale to tell. Wish I had a yarn to spin
Wish I hadn't wished you well. Wish my heart weren't paper-thin
Sober wino, wisest fool, darkest light, softest rock
Calmest panic, loosest rule, I seen 'em all went into shock
Upside down and inside out, right side up and outside in
I haven't got an axe to grind; I only want to be your friend

Running around this old dog track, running a race that I can't win
Found my way to where I am. Turns out it's where I've been
Where's the frenzy? Why the maze? Can't you see I've lost my sight
Morning came; I finally found my gaze, I woke up and said good-night
The world is spinning backwards now; the rain falls up and makes no sound
I think of you and wonder how everything turned upside down
