March
April Fool's Day Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Each year starts too late,
it’s getting too cold to find a way up.
I couldn’t do much more than
listen to the clock.
This month has been the longest one,
but March is comming up, is right on the doorstep.
I wanted to fix everything at once,
I had no time. I had no time.

Waitin' my own preaching from
somebody’s mouth, to hear it again?
Just words and words, if it wasn’t true.

“I had no time, I had no time.”
If our only difference is that,
where do I start?
I wish it were that easy,
wearing a coat inside out,
This year will start on March 1
but it’s ok, it’s gonna start...

This year starts on March 1
but it’s ok, it starts...
This year starts on April 1
but it’s ok, it starts...
This year starts on May 1
but it’s ok, it starts...




This year starts on June 1
but it’s ok, it starts...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of April Fool's Day's song "March in 2-3" speak about the struggle of starting a new year and how time seems to move too slowly. The opening lines suggest that the beginning of the year takes too long to arrive, and by the time it does, the weather has gotten too cold. The singer then confesses that they have been unable to do anything but watch the clock. The mention of March coming up indicates that the singer is anticipating the arrival of the new month, which they hope will provide a fresh start. However, they admit to not having the time to fix everything at once.


The next verse has the singer waiting to hear their own preaching from someone else, which could suggest that they are seeking guidance or inspiration. However, they are careful to note that they only want to hear words that are true. The repetition of "I had no time" reinforces the idea that the singer is struggling to find the time to create positive change in their life. The final line of the verse, "If our only difference is that, where do I start?" adds a hint of ambiguity to the song. It's unclear what this difference refers to, but it seems to be something that is keeping the singer from making progress in their life.


The chorus provides some optimism, suggesting that it doesn't matter when the year starts because it will begin eventually. The repeated "but it's ok, it starts" implies that the singer needs to accept that they cannot control everything and that progress, no matter how slow, is still progress.


Overall, "March in 2-3" is a reflective song that speaks to the struggles of starting anew and the importance of accepting that progress takes time.

I LOVE how your district/school places so much importance on the Arts! As a future music teacher, this makes me happy to see that there are schools out there that understand that the Arts are an important part of the education of our students.
