Even Is Even - NewPrimitive

Kate sent me her beautiful music and I've added some musical ideas. We are hoping to add more material to it at a later stage. There might be lyrics or a piano duet or perhaps other instruments added. We'll see. Thank you for listening.

Early October Music By Kate Stanton and Nadia Cripps

You've been foretold about the danger that's coming...but you didn't expect this

The Tower Falls

JUST BE THERE FOR HER (Cooper/Jones)
© All Rights Reserved 2023

So many questions
I can’t answer them all
Just make a few suggestions
Keep the writings off the wall
Who am I to really say
I’ve messed up time and time again
There’s a price you have to pay
You must understand, my friend

Just be there for her
Whenever she may need you
Just be there for her
Whoever may succeed you
Face the fact, you can’t go back to the way things were
And just be there for her

You built a life together
That looked solid from the start
Then came some stormy weather
And you let it fall apart
Now she faces decisions
And you can’t stand in her way
Whatever she envisions
If you want a part to play

Just be there for her
Whenever she may need you
Just be there for her
Whoever may succeed you
Face the fact, you can’t go back to the way things were
And just be there for her

Who knows if down the line
When and if the scars are healed
You might gently cross her mind
And find a landing field

Just be there for her
Whenever she may need you
Just be there for her
Whoever may succeed you
Face the fact, you can’t go back to the way things were
And just be there for her
Just be there for her
Just be there for her
Just be there for her

Just Be There for Her

IT’S MESSY…BUT IT’S OURS (Cooper/Jones)
© All Rights Reserved 2023

There are clothes and toys strewn all over the place
The neighbours think the front lawn’s a disgrace
The kitchen and bathroom both need a deep clean
But sloppily and slovenly, we’re living the dream

One day we might get on top of it all
But right now, we’re too busy having a ball
Where some see weeds, we see flowers
Heavens to Betsy! It’s messy…but it’s ours

You drive a rust bucket; I ride an old bike
Both of us going wherever we like
The kids run wild and ignore all routine 
Careless and carefree, just living the dream

One day we might get on top of it all
But right now, we’re too busy having a ball
Where some see rowdiness, we see special powers
Heavens to Betsy! It’s messy…but it’s ours

Sometimes the week lasts longer than the money
But we don’t mind surviving on bread and honey  
‘Cos there’s always lots of love and laughter on the scene
Slapdash and slap-happy, we’re living the dream

One day we might get on top of it all
But right now, we’re too busy having a ball
Where some see woes, we see wows
Heavens to Betsy! It’s messy…but it’s ours
Heavens to Betsy! It’s messy…but it’s ours

It's Messy...but It's Ours

EVERY NOW AND THEN (Cooper/Jones)
© All Rights Reserved 2023

Every now and then a day arrives when you’re not ready
The pieces aren’t in place and it doesn’t feel right
You go from room to room but your steps are unsteady
Can’t concentrate on anything or focus on the light

Every now and then
Who knows why or when
We slip beneath the bar we’ve raised so high
Count from one to ten
But if that fails, my friend
It’s okay every now and then to cry

Every now and then a doubt filled thought'll cross your mind
Making you unsure of what your heart holds dear
Uncertain of yourself and unable to unwind
Decisions can’t be made and the answers aren’t clear

Every now and then
Who knows why or when
We slip beneath the bar we’ve raised so high
Count from one to ten
But if that fails, my friend
It’s okay every now and then to cry

If you just let it go
Let those teardrops flow
Taking with them all your miseries
A new day will dawn tomorrow

Every now and then
Who knows why or when
We slip beneath the bar we’ve raised so high
Count from one to ten
But if that fails, my friend
It’s okay every now and then to cry

Count from one to ten
But if that fails, my friend
It’s okay every now and then to cry

Every Now and Then

PREVENTING A CATASTROPHE
© Cooper/Jones 2023

Well…the boulder was a-thunderin’ right down the hill
Below, the folks in their beds layin’ sleepy and still
Not for the first time, the onus was on me
To act fast, preventing a catastrophe

And the train was a-hurtlin’ all over the track
Out of control, no way to stop or turned back
How come it’s always my responsibility
To act fast, preventing a catastrophe

Seems like I’m always on high alert
To dig dodgy situations out of the dirt
Hardly get any downtime to spend on me
Always acting fast, preventing a catastrophe

Hell…the two great world leaders were havin’ a spat
Each tryin’ to second guess the other’s line of attack
Once more, I had to step in and do what needs be
To act fast, preventing a catastrophe

Sarah-Mae and Willy, clearly made for each other
But Sarah-Mae tipped a subtle wink to Willie’s big brother
I had to, given Willie’s temper, save all three
To act fast, preventing a catastrophe

It’s twenty-four/seven, with no let up or release
I’ll only get some peaceful rest, the day I rest in peace
Gotta go now, there’s a ship that’s lost at sea
Always acting fast, preventing a catastrophe

Preventing a Catastrophe

ON THE CONE OF A ROCKET (Cooper/Jones) 
© All Rights Reserved 2023

It’s not enough for you to have a roof
And a place to lay your hat
It’s not hardcore to go to the store
Each day like the last

So, you line up the bottles, think of glory days
When you and the guys got wrecked in LA 
Drink until you numb the pain 
Of trading the wild for the tame 

You were on the cone of a rocket
The edge of the knife
You were falling to earth one high at a time
When you bet all your money
And gambled your life
When you were out of your head 
Jumping into bed 
With every bad girl you could get 
Can’t remember going down in blue lights 
Coz those were the good times 

You flick through the pictures from parties long gone
Wish you were there reliving the fun
Look in the mirror, don’t like what you see
How did you make it past thirty-three

So, you line up the bottles, think of glory days
When you and the guys got wrecked in LA 
What happened to those bull-headed dreams
Stored in boxes as memories

You were on the cone of a rocket
The edge of the knife
You were falling to earth one high at a time
When you bet all your money
And gambled your life
When you were out of your head 
Jumping into bed 
With every bad girl you could get 
Can’t remember going down in blue lights 
Coz those were the good times 

You were on the cone of a rocket
The edge of the knife
You were falling to earth one high at a time
When you bet all your money
And gambled your life
When you were out of your head 
Jumping into bed 
With every bad girl you could get 
Can’t remember going down in blue lights 
Coz those were the good times

On the Cone of a Rocket

YOU WON ME OVER WITH YOUR CROOKED SMILE

I CAN SEE DESIRE IN YOUR EYES

YOUR TOUCH IS THE FLAME THAT MAKES MY HEART MELT

BY THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE I CAN TELL


YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THE WORDS 
I ALREADY KNOW

YOUR HEART SPEAKS AND THE TRUTH IS TOLD

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THE WORDS

I ALREADY KNOW

I ALREADY KNOW WHAT I NEED TO KNOW


I CAN SEE YOUR SMILE TAKING A NEW AIM

DESIRE SWIMS THROUGH HER VEINS

YOUR TOUCH IS THE FLAME THAT MAKES HER HEART MELT

BY THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE I CAN TELL


YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THE WORDS 

I ALREADY KNOW

YOUR HEART SPEAKS AND THE TRUTH IS TOLD

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THE WORDS

I ALREADY KNOW

I ALREADY KNOW WHAT I NEED TO KNOW

BY THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE I CAN TELL

I ALREADY KNOW

Hopefully...hopefully...hopefully soon...

As a die-hard Chicago Cubs fan (and David would like to point out that he has always been a Cubs fan - EVEN when they were the "butt-end of MANY a joke,")David had the utmost pleasure and privilege to play the National Anthem at Wrigley Field three times with his aforementioned former band.  David's next step is new music to (HOPEFULLY) be released in (early) 2017.  David's musical path may have changed.  However, it is just beginning with the next chapter that will unfold in the coming year.  David is thankful for the friends, family and tribal members that have tirelessly supported him - both quietly and with gusto.
With eternal gratitude and many thanks,
David Kav
