Upside Down (Live) [The Sanders Theatre, 31/03/94]

[Intro]

"I don't do this one much anymore, but somebody asked me last night at the uh, at the coffee house to do this, so here you are."

[Verse 1]

God, I love to turn my little blue world upside down

God, I love to turn my little blue world upside down

Inside my head the noise, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter

You see I'm afraid I'll always be still coming out of my mother upside down

[Verse 2]

Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down

Oh, I know you love to turn this little blue girl, baby, upside down

But my heart it says you've been shatter, shatter, shatter, shatter, shattered

And I know you're still a boy, still coming out of your mother

[Bridge 1]

But when you going to stand on your own?

I say the world is sick

You say, "Tell me what that makes us, darling?"

You see you always find my faults

Faster than you find your own

You say the world is getting rid of her demons

I say, "Baby, what have you been smoking?"

Well, I dreamed, I dreamed, I dreamed I loved a black boy

My daddy would scream

[Verse 3]

Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down?

Any kind of touch I think is better than none, even upside down

But you see I'm tangled up, got a kitten, kitten, kitten, kitten in my hair

Cincinnati, I like the word, it's the only thing we can't seem to turn upside down

[Interlude]

[Bridge 2]

Well, I found the secret to life

I found the secret to life

I'm okay when everything is not okay

I said I found the secret to life

I found the secret to life

I'm okay when everything is not okay, is not okay

[Verse 4]

Turn, turn our little blue world upside down?

I said don't we love to turn our little blue world baby upside down?

Inside my head a voice, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter

And it says, "Girl, you're all the same, still coming out of your mothers

Still coming out of your mothers upside down"
