So there are threads for summer and winter songs, but none for the season that it actually is (in the Northern Hemisphere, anyway)?

A few I can think of:

Spring Haze - Tori Amos
June - Camper Van Beethoven (I guess it could be argued that this one is more appropriate for summer, but it does mention spring, and most of June technically DOES fall in the spring.)
Winter Goes Away - Minus 5
Easter Theatre - XTC
Poisoning Pigeons In The Park - Tom Lehrer

I group spring and summer songs together but that's probably a function of us transitioning from winter to summer over the course of about three weeks.

Poisoning Pigeons In The Park - Tom Lehrer

Spring is here, a-suh-puh-ring is here.
Life is skittles and life is beer.
I think the loveliest time of the year is the spring.
I do, don't you? 'Course you do.
But there's one thing that makes spring complete for me,
And makes every Sunday a treat for me.

All the world seems in tune
On a spring afternoon,
When we're poisoning pigeons in the park.
Every Sunday you'll see
My sweetheart and me,
As we poison the pigeons in the park.

When they see us coming, the birdies all try an' hide,
But they still go for peanuts when coated with cyanide.
The sun's shining bright,
Everything seems all right,
When we're poisoning pigeons in the park.

We've gained notoriety,
And caused much anxiety
In the Audubon Society
With our games.
They call it impiety
And lack of propriety,
And quite a variety
Of unpleasant names.
But it's not against any religion
To want to dispose of a pigeon.

So if Sunday you're free,
Why don't you come with me,
And we'll poison the pigeons in the park.
And maybe we'll do
In a squirrel or two,
While we're poisoning pigeons in the park.

We'll murder them all amid laughter and merriment,
Except for the few we take home to experiment.
My pulse will be quickenin'
With each drop of strych'nine
We feed to a pigeon.
(It just takes a smidgin!)
To poison a pigeon in the park.
