Lyrics

[Intro — instrumental only, no vocals]
[a coiled spring boings; the beat bounces up and rides]
[Instrumental build — still no singing, let the groove settle in]
[Instrumental — the spring and the strings carry it alone]

[Verse 1 — vocals enter at last]
Top of the red line, the end of the climb,
where the four-lane comes in and the suburbs unwind;
park it and ride it, let the spring uncoil,
bounce down to the city off the northern soil.

[Chorus]
North Springs, North Springs, wound up tight,
spring down the line into the city light;
boing, boing, the end becomes the start,
the far-north coil with a city in its heart.

[Outro — vocals stop here]
[Instrumental — the spring keeps bouncing alone, no more singing]
[Long instrumental outro — the beat and the spring ride out and slowly settle all the way down to silence]
