The World Is Upside Down

The lie is lore. The czar is poor.
The fort is shanty town.
The wall is floor. The aft is fore.
The world is upside down.

The joy is sad. The sane is mad.
The grin is but a frown.
The nude is clad. The boy is dad.
The world is upside down.

The sea is red. The fish is dead.
The dupe is circus clown.
The soil is lead. The rat is fed.
The world is upside down.

The sky is jade. The queen is maid.
The barb is just a crown.
The sand is suede. The oaf is paid.
The world is upside down.
