spring
G. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Once I was a sentimental thing
Threw my heart away each Spring;
Now a Spring romance hasn't got a chance
Promised my first dance to Winter;
All I've got to show's a splinter for my little fling!

Spring this year has got me feeling like a horse that never left the post;
I lie in my room staring up at the ceiling
Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most!

Morning's kiss wakes TREEES and flowers
And to them I'd like to drink a toast;
I walk in the park just to kill lonely hours
Spring Can really Hang You Up The Most

All afternoon those birds twitter twit
I know the tune, "This is love, this is it!"
Heard it before and I know the score
And I've decided that Spring is a bore!

Love seemed sure around the New Year
Now it's April, love is just a ghost;
Spring arrived on time, only what became of you, dear?
Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most!
Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most!

Doctors once prescribed a tonic
"Sulphur and MOLASSES" was the dose;
Didn't help a bit, my condition must be chronic
Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most!

All alone, the party's over
Old man Winter was a gracious host;




But when you keep praying for snow to hide the clover
Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of G.'s song "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most" depict the singer's perspective on the emotional effects of springtime. The opening lines indicate that the singer used to be more sentimental during the spring season, giving their heart away each year. However, they now suggest that spring romances are futile, as they have promised their first dance to Winter. This signifies a sense of disillusionment and bitterness towards love.


The reference to a splinter suggests that the singer's past experiences have left them hurt and disappointed. They have come to feel that spring can be emotionally draining and leave one feeling stuck, comparable to a horse that never left the starting point. The image of lying in a room and staring at the ceiling evokes a sense of isolation and contemplation.


In the following verses, the singer acknowledges the beauty of nature's awakening during spring. Morning's kiss wakes up the trees and flowers, and the singer wants to raise a toast to them. However, they walk in the park to kill lonely hours, implying that despite the beauty around them, they still feel lonely and disconnected.


The mention of birds twittering and the familiar tune of love signifies that the singer has experienced love before and realizes that it can become repetitive and unfulfilling. They decide that spring itself is boring and devoid of the excitement and promise of new love. The reference to love being a ghost in April implies that their expectations of love have not been met.


The mention of doctors prescribing a tonic with sulfur and molasses suggests that the singer has tried various remedies to alleviate their emotional state during spring, but nothing has helped. They refer to their condition as chronic, further emphasizing the enduring and recurring nature of their emotional struggles during this season.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of disillusionment, bitterness, and emotional exhaustion that the singer associates with spring. Despite the beauty and renewal that the season brings, they feel disconnected, lonely, and let down by their experiences of love.

to everyone asking why Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven arent making any music anymore, its actually because they've been working on an extremely big collab together for the last 400 years, so stay tuned for it because its gonna be absolutely fire
