HEAR YE! HEAR YE!
HEAR YE! HEAR YE!
(T. Beechey)
I hereby decree from this day forth
Land is now sea, south is now north
Rich is now poor, sick is now well,
Less is now more, buy is now sell
East is now west, up is now down,
Worst is now best, a snile's now a frown
Over's now under, below is above
Lightning's now thunder, hate is now love
A whisper's a shout, a need is a want
In is now out, back is now front
War is now peace, smart is now dumb
Hold's now release, all is now some
Open is closed, proceed's now retract
All things supposed are regarded as fact
Grow's now diminish, hide is now seek
Start is now finish, strong is now weak
Truths are now lies, real's now pretend
Fall is now rise, a foe's now a friend
Pleasure's now pain, laughter's now tears
A loss is a gain and boos are now cheers
Give is now keep, push is now pull
Awake's now asleep and empty's now full
Cold is now hot, soft is now hard
A little's a lot, allowed is now barred
Saints are now sinners, futures are pasts
Losers are winners, firsts are now lasts
Low is now high, true is now false
Hello's now goodbye, enjoy's now repulse
Old is now new, learn is now teach
Many are now few, the ocean's the beach
Happy's now sad, sober's now drunk
Good is now bad, pass is now flunk
To fail's to suceed, stop is now go
Ignore is to heed, yes is now no
Sharp is now dull, even's now odd
Short is now tall and the perfect's now flawed
Itch is now scratch, stretch is now bend
Throw is now catch, beginning's now end
These are now laws which, of course, can be broken
In all seriousness, you see, I'm jokin'!
