Lyrics
Magnetic North
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
Now you've got your computers and your GPS
But don’t forget what’s still the best
You don't need electricity or radiation
Just a compass pointing to your destination
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
The compass points ‘cuz of the earth's iron core
That's a magnet too if you're keepin' score
But magnetic north is not the north pole
So don't come to me if Santa left you coal!
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
Let me lead you to places that you’ll want to go
What you’ll find, you never know
I might take you to Greenland or the Ukraine
But wherever you are your compass says the same
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
