Текст песни
Welcome to the place where clocks tick left
Where normal is what we've bereft
Houses built with roofs for floors
Windows where there should be doors
People walk upon their hands
Following the mayor's demands
Breakfast served at quarter past never
In this backwards town forever
Everything's the wrong way round
Up is down and lost is found
In this topsy-turvy ground
In the backwards town where we belong
Right is wrong and short is long
Cats bark and the dogs all purr
Everything's as it never were
Dancing to our backwards song
Library books read themselves
While the readers sit on shelves
Mirrors show your future face
Time runs backwards in this place
Would you like to stay and play
Where tomorrow's yesterday?
Where the sun sets in the east
And we're all invited to the feast?
In the backwards town where we belong
Every verse becomes our song
Come and join our strange parade
In the backwards world we've made
Step right up, don't be afraid"In our backwards masquerade"
