    Story Behind the Song
    I was planning a trip to Australia in the summer of 2000, and a few acquaintances at the time had the nerve to tell me, "so, you're going Down Under to be an Upside-down Girl for awhile..." well, by the time
    the third person had accused me of this, ideas for the song had started to form, so to my three acquaintances who made this accusation to me, I heartily thank you... after completing the basic song in August of 2000, I very quickly demoed the song
    at Sweet Creek Studios in PA and sent it out to three morons posing as music producers in NYC, LA and Australia... offering credits on the song IF they would please produce it on their dime... originally, no one took me up on it, and so I came back to PA and started playing it live, and it soon became the number one requested song at all of my live gigs... it is starting to get airplay as a promo single now and yep, this is a NUMBER ONE HIT SONG...

    Lyrics
    From up here his letters look all
    backwards, mangled, twisted 'round
    I can feel him thru the wires
    He's feeding fires, he dreams out loud

    For so long, been watchin' this world go 'round
    ...so long, since I've left this town and this crowd
    I'm hangin' around...

    I'm an upside-down girl...
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    An upside down-girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    So turn it around girl
    You're lost and you're found girl
    You're an upside-down girl

    (Better tie me to the bed...)

    I'm deep inside his universe
    It's a brand new world it's in hi-res
    Pack me up in styrofoam with a
    Box of CDs, then press send...

    For so long, been watchin' this world go 'round
    He said, since I've left this town and this crowd
    I'm hangin' around...

    I'm an upside-down girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    An upside-down girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    So turn it around girl
    You're lost and you're found, girl!
    You're an upside-down girl..... yow!

    (Uh - huh)
    (Uh - huh)
    (Uh - huh)

    For so long... watchin' this world go 'round
    He said, since I've left this town and this crowd
    I'm hangin' around...

    I'm an upside-down girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    An upside-down Girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    So turn it around, girl
    You're lost and you're found girl
    You're caught in a dreamworld
    So turn it around girl (you're an...)

    Upside-down girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    An upside-down Girl
    Livin' in a rightside-up world
    So turn it around, girl
    You're caught in a dreamworld
    Turn it around, girl
    You're caught in a dream... dream... dream

    do do (turn it around girl)... ( x 2 out)
