the lyrics : when up is down and down is up right is left and left is right the laws of physics are broken and darkness shines like light going nowhere by running going backwards by being still walking on a flat surface gets you to the top of a hill refrain : when the world has gone topsy-turvy when desperately seeking a sane haven remember some riddles do n't make sense and a writing desk is not like a raven at the end of the sidewalk i fell up instead of down and after i flew over the clouds i landed softly on the ground what is happening here ?
