THE WHOLE WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

[written at the Tastee Diner, Bethesda, MD]

I know I'm right side up
got coffee in the cup
the eggs are on the plate
there must be some mistake
they're staring up at me
as gold as they can be
don't even try to hide
stay on the sunny side

the room is spinning round and round
the whole world is upside down

there's nothing wrong with me
I'm steady as can be
the sidewalk's in the sky
and everybody's high
the cashier's talking backwards
and lies are moving fact words
nobody's making sense
not in the present tense

the radio singing without a sound
the whole world's upside down

there once was a time
back in my prime
and I ignored the one way sign
I went go at every stop
I fell off of the top
and I started at the finish line

I asked for over easy
they looked at me so sleazy
I tried to laugh it off
the yolks were much too soft
and when I start again
I had to make new friends
I swear it's not my fault
the cap came off the salt

I aint lost but I sure aint found
the whole world's upside down !!!!

Very creative, travelin' man. Could be a winner. I recall when Lionel Richie made a fortune out of Dancing on the Ceiling. And it was trite compared to this philosophical wonder.

PS. Did they give you free breakfast for the plug and was this written on a napkin?
