Turning Point
(For Adult Contest)
Turning point: a child is born
tears of pain, tears of joy
mother's milk, flood of love
sit 'n' stand, laugh 'n' talk
on the fly get to know
what is right, what is wrong
rise 'n' shine, fall 'n' rise
question, protest, memorise
weren't allowed, now you can
earn 'n' spend, break 'n' mend
climb the ladder, fall in love
wonder if there's God above
'more you give, 'more you get
care, respect and then protect
tears of pain, tears of joy
Turning point: your child is born
