Lyrics[]
Wiggles: (a-capella) Wiggle T-T-Town, Wiggle-T-T-Town
Wiggle T-T-Town, Wiggle T-T-Town (x2)
Lachy: In Wiggle Town, there lives a clown
And his smile looks like a frown and it's upside down
(Whistling)
The kittens hide, the mice all hunt
The spoons are sharp, the knives are blunt
It's back to front
(Whistling)
The dog's meow, the lion's tweet
The sugar's sour, the salt tastes sweet
The rocks are soft, the pillows hard
The shepherds sleep, the sheep stand guard
Back to front, front to back
And upside down, whooooa
That's the wonder of Wiggle Town
Oh, ba da da da da
In Wiggle Town, the young are old
The milk is hot, the tea is cold
The wise are fools
Straight lines are bent, a square is round
The loudest bells don't make a sound
There are no rules
(Whistling)
The short are tall, the tall are short
The fishes fish, the men get caught
The food is wet, the water's dry
The tearful laugh, the happy sigh
Back to front, front to back
And upside down, whooooa
That's the wonder of Wiggle Town
Oh, that's the wonder of Wiggle Town
That's the wonder of Wiggle Town
Wiggles: (a-capella) Wiggle T-T-Town, Wiggle-T-T-Town
Wiggle T-T-Town, Wiggle T-T-Town (x4)
