And now, ladies and gentlemen, the piece de resistance!
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!
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?
Topsy Turvy
Ugly folk, forget your shyness
Topsy Turvy
You could soon be called "Your Highness"!
Put your foulest features on display
Be the King of Topsy Turvy day!
Topsy Turvy
Aren't you going to join in the competition?
My God
Topsy Turvy
Well, wouldn't you like to be crowned King for a day?
Topsy Turvy
Why not take advantage of what you've got?
My God! He's hideous!
Is that a mask?
It's his face!
He's the devil!
Impossible!
You're cursed!
Ladies and gentlemen! We're in luck. We asked for the ugliest face in Paris, and we've found him, eh? Quasimodo, the Hunchback of Notre Dame!
Everybody!
Once a year we throw a party here in town (Hail to the King!)
Once a year we turn all Paris upside-down (Oh, what a King!)
Once a year the ugliest will wear the crown (Girls, give a kiss)
Once a year on Topsy-Turvy Day (We've never had a King like this!)
And it's a 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 crown a King who puts the "top" in
Topsy Turvy Day!
Topsy Turvy!
Mad and crazy
Upsy-daisy
Topsy Turvy Day! Hey!
