When Will My Life Begin

Gaku Nakagawa

Circle Left
7 a.m., the usual morning line up:
Start on the chores and sweep ‘til the floor’s all clean
Men Star Right rollin‘ one time
Left Allemande your corner come back Weave the Ring
And so I‘ll read a book, Or maybe two or three
I’ll add a few new paintings to my gallery
I’ll play guitar and knit, and cook and basically
Just wonder when will my life begin?

Then after lunch it’s puzzles and darts, and baking
Paper mache, a bit of ballet and chess
...
And I’ll reread the books,   If I have time to spare
I’ll paint the wall some more,  I’m sure there’s room somewhere
And then I’ll Brush and Brush  And Brush and Brush my hair
Stuck in the same place I’ve always been

Four Ladies Promenade One Time
Come Home Swing with your Man
Join hands Circle Left moving around
Left Allemande your corner, come back Weave the Ring
And I’ll reread the books, If I have time to spare
I’ll paint the wall some more,  I’m sure there’s room somewhere
And then I’ll Brush and Brush and Brush and Brush my hair
Stuck in the same place I’ve always been

Heads (or Sides) Promenade travel 1/2 way
Walk in Square Thru go 4,
all the way Right and Left Thru Now
Pass Thru, Trade By, Pass the Ocean
Recycle around, Sweep 1/4
Swing your corner and Promenade Back Home
I’ll play guitar and knit, and cook and basically
Just wonder when will my life begin?

Swing!
Just wonder when will my life begin?
