Nothing's Right Side Up ft. Becca Jordan & Joseph Bradshaw Lyrics

When they tell you to laugh, you'd better weep

When they tell you to laugh, you'd better weep

For the costly kinds of pleasure we insist on getting cheap

When they tell you to laugh, weep

When they tell you to feast, you'd better fast

When they tell you to feast, you'd better fast

With tables full, they'll eat till they are empty as a glass

When they tell you to feast, fast

When the people cried "Hosanna"

The rocks cried out as well

And every shout for heaven was a step closer to hell

Sorrow pierced the Son of Man deeper than tongue can tell

When the people cried "Hosanna"

When they tell you to fast, you'd better feast

When they tell you to fast, you'd better feast

'Cause there's a meal we've not yet tasted where the greatest are the least

When they tell you to fast, feast

And when they tell you to weep, you'd better laugh

When they tell you to weep, you'd better laugh

'Cause the story isn't over, and we hardly know the half

When they tell you to weep, laugh

When the people cried "Hosanna"

The rocks cried out as well

And every shout for heaven was a step closer to hell

Sorrow pierced the Son of Man deeper than tongue can tell

When the people cried "Hosanna"

Nothing's right side up no more

Nothing's right side up

Bad and good both find just what they're looking for

When upside down comes knocking at their door

And upside down is knocking at the door

When they say all hope is lost, you'd better dance

When they say all hope is lost, you'd better dance

'Cause we might still be saved in our ignorance

When they say all hope is lost, dance

When they say all hope is lost

Dance
