David First and New Party Systems - Cradle of Life
Pulled straight out the door to cradle
Fussing the full face crying
Burping milk while learning the floor tune
Working to claim your playtime
Cut off from the navel cable
Clinging to hurried worries
Vested tricks confirming your fortunes
Stunned by the untamed dangers
Here's to a new life starting
Here's to another story
Here's to a perfect problem
Here's to the answer
Now drawing lines divining functions
Classic elastic freedoms
Pondering essential commitments
Forming select opinions
Dropping drawers and stopping shopping
Popping the tested question
Stressing with the best of intentions
Schooling the drooling young one
Here's to a new life starting
Here's to another story
Here's to a perfect problem
Here's to the answer
Counter melody:
Finding a place
Crawling against the grain
Seeking a stake in something
Searching outside expected lanes and
Making a plan
While stepping to fate's decisions
Feeling your strength evolving
Echoes of ancestors fade up
Passing it on
Checking the child's confusion
Looking for new examples
Setting your own examples too
Living in space
Hoping for grace
Grinning amazed
Getting a taste of life
