IT’S AN UPSIDE-DOWN WORLD- Sung & Composed By Country Yossi- Count Your Blessings

Reb Yosef dreamed
He went up to Heaven
And looked around to see
What he could see
When he returned
He said, “You won’t believe it.
Oilam Hufich Ra’isi”.

CHORUS:
It’s an upside-down world
Things are not as they appear to be
What you see is not reality
(Oh no) It’s an upside-down world.
It’s an upside-down world
People aren’t who they seem to be
What they’re living is a fantasy
(Oh yeah) In an upside-down world.

Those on the top
Are really on the bottom
Those on the bottom
Are really on the top
Those flying high are destined to fall
And those that seem smart
Why, they know nothing at all.

Where more is less, and less is more
The poor are rich, and the rich are poor
The perfect man is really very faulted
But humble souls
Well, they’re gonna be exalted.

Those that are out- are gonna be in
Those that are in- are gonna be out
Those that seem weak
Are really so strong
And those that seem right
Well, they’re really so wrong.

So now that you know
You can perceive
This world is really
Nothing but make-believe
The only things real
Are the Torah we learn
The Mitzvohs we do
And the Schar that we earn.

So don’t be fooled by what you see
This world is topsy-turvy
We can all agree
And praised is he who understands
And comes to Olam Haba
With his Torah in his hands.
