lyrics

it's early morning
it's not quite springtime
he's out walking

the streets are empty
of joggers and dogwalkers
no commuters save the squirrels starting the early shift

he sees a puddle
fresh frozen over
black surface smooth like glass

he walks beside it
looks at the surface
the streets are quiet
the streets are too quiet

he brushes foot across across that mirrored surface
then puts his foot down
tension push through the ice

he looks around
there's no one looking
he leans into it 'til there's a satisfying crack

he's puddlecrunching
there's no one around to see him smile

the water is seeping
and he keeps stepping
the ice is breaking

the sun is just rising
it's not quite melting
he don't want springtime
he's puddlecrunching

(J. Strutt , circa mid-2000's)
