If everything was opposite

Why, less would be more.
The poor will be rich
And the rich will be poor.

Aeroplanes fly underground
Ships sail up in the sky.
Two will be single
One will be a pair.

The tortoise, runs fast
The hare, runs slow.
The green light means stop
The red light means go.

If things were opposite
I would be you
And you would be me.
