I over-analyse Winter Wrap Up. (Song Lyrics)

As one of my favorite pony songs to sporadically break out and sing, it strikes me interesting that I've never quite memorized all of the lyrics to Winter Wrap Up. I listened through it a good number of times so that I may at least write down the lyrics. Because I like to throw my voice slightly for the purpose of impersonating each pony's voice during their solo, I included who sings what part and where. When I did this, I noticed that the ponies sing together or apart at some points which I never realized was done before. The most interesting thing to me is one particular word in Twilight's first solo...

Winter Wrap Up

- - -

Rainbow Dash (solo):
Three months of Winter coolness, and awesome holidays~

Pinkie (solo):
We've kept our hoovesies warm at home, time off from work to play~

Applejack (solo):
But the food we've stored is running out, and we can't grow in this cold~

Rarity (solo):
And even though I love my boots, this fashion's getting old~

- - -

Twilight (solo):
The time has come to welcome Spring-
and all things warm and *green,
but it's also time to say goodbye.
It's Winter we must clean.
How can I help? I'm new, you see.
What does everypony do?
How do I fit-in without magic?
I haven't got a clue!

Chorus: (Ponies)
1. Winter Wrap-Up, Winter Wrap-Up!
2. Let's finish our holiday cheer,
1. Winter Wrap-Up, Winter Wrap-Up!

(Rainbow Dash) 'cause tomorrow Spring is here-

2. 'cause tomorrow Spring is here!

- - -

Rainbow Dash (solo):
Bringing home the southern birds,
A pegasus' job begins
And clearing all the gloomy skies,
to let the sunshine in!
We move the clouds and we melt the white snow;

(Ponies) When the sun comes up, it's warmth and beauty will glow!

Rarity:
Little critters hibernate-
under the snow and ice.

Fluttershy:
We wake up all the sleepyheads-
so quietly and nice!

Rarity:
We help them gather up their food-
'fix their homes below.

Fluttershy:
We welcome back the Southern birds-
so their families can grow!

Applejack (solo):
No easy task to clear the ground,
plant our tiny seeds.
With proper care and sunshine,
everyone it feeds.
Apples, carrots, celery stalks,
colorful flowers too!
We must work so very hard,

Ponies:
it's just so much to do!

Twilight (solo):
Now that I know what they all do-
I have to find my place,
and help with all of my heart-
'tough task ahead I face.
How will I do without my magic-
help the Earth Pony way?
I wanna belong, so I must-
do my best today-
do my best today!

*green.
When Twilight sings the word "green" in her line "and all things warm and green.", her voice is skewed just enough to suggest either another pony singing in harmony with her, or some pitch-shifting post-recording.

Happy singing!
