Up and Down Frowns
Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Music by John C. Lippi
Kevin Kammeraad

Chorus:
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)

The thoughts in my mind
Go up and down, they do (they do?)
They do.
Not sure what to do,
I’m left with a frown, boo hoo, boo hoo, boo hoo.
I say to myself
It’s a real bad day
But only if I choose
To make it that way.

Chorus:
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)

Instrumental.

The thoughts in my mind
Go up and down, they do (they do?)
They do (I see.)
Not sure what to do,
I’m left with a frown, boo hoo, boo hoo, boo hoo.
I say to myself
It’s a real bad day
But only if I choose
To make it that way.

Chorus:
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)
Up and down frowns (up and down frowns.)

Okay what we’re gonna do now people,
is turn everything around,
turn that frown upside down.
Sometimes it’s fun to do something backwards.
So we’re gonna take the chorus and we’re gonna sing it backwards, okay.
Instead of “up and down frowns” it’s gonna be…this…

“Snworf nwod dna pu” (Snworf nwod dna pu?)
“Snworf nwod dna pu” (Snworf nwod dna pu?)
“Snworf nwod dna pu” (Snworf nwod dna pu?)
“Snworf nwod dna pu” (Snworf nwod dna pu?)

Up and down frowns (Snworf nwod dna pu.)
Up and down frowns (Snworf nwod dna pu.)
Up and down frowns (Snworf nwod dna pu.)
Up and down frowns (Snworf nwod dna pu.)

Yeah!
