by Shel Silverstein
If the world was crazy, you know what I'd eat?
A big slice of soup and a whole quart of meat,
A lemonade sandwich, and then I might try
Some roasted ice cream or a bicycle pie,
A nice notebook salad, and underwear roast,
An omelet of hats and some crisp cardboard toast,
A thick malted milk made from pencils and daisies,
And that's what I'd eat if the world was crazy.
If the world was crazy, you know what I'd wear?
A chocolate suit and a tie of eclair,
Some marshmallow earmuffs, some licorice shoes,
And I'd read a paper of peppermint news.
I'd call the boys "Suzy" and I'd call the girls "Harry,"
I'd talk through my ears, and I always would carry
A paper unbrella for when it grew hazy
To keep in the rain, if the world was crazy.
If the world was crazy, you know what I'd do?
I'd walk on the ocean and swim in my shoe,
I'd fly through the ground and I'd skip through the air,
I'd run down the bathtub and bathe on the stair.
When I met somebody I'd say "G'bye, Joe,"
And when I was leaving - then I'd say "Hello."
And the greatest of men would be silly and lazy
So I would be king... if the world was cazy.

I saw the picture on your profile and my first thought was...."that looks like Singapore?" then I saw your location was Singapore, so I wanted to ask...What is that a picture of?
I lived in Singapore for awhile so once in awhile I'll see something that makes me "homesick" and this picture did it. I really hope to be able to visit there again someday.
Are you cataloging books for a new primary school in Singapore?
Thanks for your time.
