Topsy
Turvy
Crowd - Come one, come
all
Leave your looms and milking stools,
coop the hens and pen the mules
Come one, come
all
Close the churches and the
schools
It's the day for breaking
rules
Come and join the feast
of...
Clopin - Fools!
Once a year we throw a party, here in
town
Once a year we turn all Paris upside
down
Every man's a king and every king's a
clown
Once again it's Topsy Turvy
day
It's the day the devil in us gets
released
It's the day we mock the pig and shock
the priest
Everything is topsy turvy at the Feast
of Fools
Crowd - Topsy
Turvy
Clopin - Everything in upsy
daisy
Crowd - Topsy
Turvy
Clopin - Everyone is acting
crazy
Dross is gold and weeds are a
bouquet
That's the way on Topsy Turvy
day
All - Topsy
Turvy
Crowd - Beat the drums and blow the
trumpets
All - Topsy
Turvy
Crowd - Join the bums and thieves and
strumpets
Streaming in from Charters to
Calais
Clopin - Scurvy knaves are extra
scurvy
On the 6th of "January"
Crowd - All because it's Topsy Turvy
Day
Clopin - Come one, come
all
Hurry, hurry, here's your chance, see
the mystery and romance
Come one, come
all
See the finest girl in
France
Make an entrance to
entrance
Dance la
Esmeralda
Dance
Here it is, the moment you've been
waiting for
Here it is, you know exactly what's in
store
Now's the time we laugh until our
sides get sore
Now's the time we crown the King of Fools!
You all remember last years' king?
So make a face that's horrible and
frightening
Make a face as gruesome as a
gargoyle's wing
For the face that's ugliest will be
the King of Fools
Why?
Crowd - Topsy
Turvy
Clopin - Ugly folk, forget your
shyness
Crowd - Topsy
Turvy
Clopin - You could soon be called "Your Highness"
Crowd - Put your foulest features on
display
Be the king of Topsy Turvy
Day
Clopin -
Everybody
Crowd - Once a year we throw a party,
here in town
Once a year we turn all Paris upside
down
Once a year the ugliest will wear a
crown
Once a year on Topsy Turvy
day
Clopin - Hail to the
king
Oh, what a king
Girls, give a
kiss
We've never had a king
like
this
All - And it's the day we do the
things that we deplore
On the other three hundred and
sixty-four
Once a year we love to drop in, where
the beer is never stoppin'
For the chance to pop some
popinjay
And pick a king who'll put the top in
Topsy Turvy day
Mad an crazy, upsy daisy, Topsy Turvy
day
