What a Waltz

    Papa is not someone to fear. He is a playful and energetic father that plays with his kids. He is admired by them and loved, as shown in the last line talking about going to bed, still holding his shirt. The mother is the sad logical one who realized her husbands drunken state. It makes me wonder why he is drunk and if his kids even notice. He is clearly a hard working blue collar man with a little too much stress, but he still is happy with his kids; maybe it is his wife that upsets him and causes him to drink. The rhythm gives it a slow melancholy feel while still being slightly upbeat.
