Versatile Verse 2

Or lazy days for birdwatching

Or lazy days for birdwatching

Until the next generation arrives to give us purpose
We're used to babies so helping doesn't make us nervous

It;s human nature, we call it progress
Although it leaves a gap and we feel helpless

Until the next generation arrives to give us purpose

There are a few you can call modern men
they come out and help; don't hide in their den

They're fun to be with and good for a laugh

Not a man to be seen, here or anywhere
