Things are seldom what they seem - Gilbert and Sullivan
[Buttercup]
Things are seldom what they seem,
Skim milk masquerades as cream;
Highlows pass as patent leathers;
Jackdaws strut in peacock's feathers.

[Captain]
Very true,
So they do.

[Butter]
Black sheep dwell in every fold;
All that glitters is not gold;
Storks turn out to be but logs;
Bulls are but inflated frogs.

[Captain]
So they be,
Frequentlee.

[Buttercup]
Drops the wind and stops the mill;
Turbot is ambitious brill;
Gild the farthing if you will,
Yet it is a farthing still.
