The World Turned Upside Down

Through eating too much supper
因為在睡覺前
Before I went to bed
吃了太多的晚飯
Strange thoughts came o'er my slumber
導致在睡夢中我產生了奇怪的想法
Strange thoughts came in my head
這個想法在我腦海中展開
This world was topsy-turvy
假如這是個顛倒的世界
And people of renown
那些有名望的人
Were doing the most peculiar things
在這個顛倒的世界裡
As the world turned upside down
做著最怪異的事情
I dreamt all men were equal
我夢見在這個世界裡所有的人都是平等的
And there were no starving poor
沒有挨餓的窮人
And nations never did quarrel
國家之間從未有過爭端
Nor never went to war
也不曾有過戰爭
I dreamt all men were angels
我夢見所有的人都是天使
And women ne'er wore a frown
母親從不會皺起眉頭
Old maids they had large families
年老的女僕們都有一個大家庭
As the world turned upside down
當世界顛倒過來
