If our tables was turned
You'd be scolded and spurned
But you don't let it spoil your day
I'd be going to class, past a whistling lass
Busy scrubbing the passageway
And you'd give me a smile, forget for awhile
That there's Ms. Minchin to keep at bay
If our tables was turned
You'd be nice as a cold buffet
If our tables was turned
Far as I was concerned
I'd be kindly as I could be
I'd be worked off my feet
Just a muffin to eat
Leaves you hungry to meet with me
'Cause I calls you by name, don't put you to shame
Sometimes I brings you a cuppa tea
If our tables was turned, I'd have buckets of pedigree
And I'd have a dad who's bona fide
And an officer beside, and he travels with me far and wide
And we'd have a different life indeed
But we'd be the same within our hearts
We're counterparts
And that's how friendship starts, its guaranteed
If our tables was turned
Once me lessons was learned
I'd be back in a flash to 'ere
I'd bring Minchin the post, serve the girls tea and toast
Then we'd meet while the coast is clear
Though we'd (As far as I can see)
Have a different life indeed (We'd still be you and me)
Still, we'd be the same
Within our hearts
We're counterparts
And that's how friendship starts, it's guaranteed
If the tables were turned (If our tables was turned)
I'd be scolded and spurned (Far as I was concerned)
I'd be ordered about all day (I'd be nice as a cold buffet)
I'd be worked off my feet (I'd be going to class)
Next to nothing to eat (Wondering who was the lass)
'Til I'm hungry to meet and play (Busy scrubbing the passageway)
As I think we agree
You're perfect as me
And vice-versa I have to say
Let the tables be turned
We'll find a way
If we could turn our tide
If our tables were turned (We'd be the same inside)
If our tables were turned (If the tables were turned)
