If buttercups buzz’d after the bee,
If boats were on land, churches on sea,
If ponies rode men and if grass ate the cows,
And cats should be chased into holes by the mouse,
If the mamas sold their babies
To the gypsies for half a crown;
If summer were spring and the other way round,
Then all the world would be upside down.

When as a lad so many years ago I first read of the surrender to Lincoln, I recall thinking about how the song seemed to apply to our relationships now versus then...the US with Britain and US with France.
