Walking 'round the room singing Stormy Weather
At Fifty Seven Mount Pleasant Street
Well, it's the same room, but everything's different
You can fight the sleep, but not the dream
Things ain't cookin' in my kitchen
Strange affliction wash over me
Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue sky
Well, there's a small boat made of china
It's going nowhere on the mantelpiece
Well, do I lie like a lounge-room lizard
Or do I sing like a bird released?
Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, always take the weather, the weather with you
Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
You take the weather, the weather with you
(Everywhere you go)
Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Take the weather, the weather with you

Song Meaning
The song is about how you make your own weather. Is it sunny weather? Are you happy? Or is it stormy weather? Is your life a mess? Your life is what you make of it. You always take the weather with you. Simple as that...
Walking 'round the room singing
Stormy WeatherBeing in a bad mood
At fifty seven Mt. Pleasant St.
Now it's the same room but everything's differentYour mood colors everything in the present
You can fight the sleep but not the dream
Things ain't cooking in my kitchen
Strange affliction wash over meThings aren't happy "in my kitchen".
Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue skyIt's hard to get out of a funk
There's a small boat made of china
Going nowhere on the mantelpieceBeing too fragile to live life
Do I lie like a lounge room lizard
Or do I sing like a bird releasedDo I choose to be gloomy or do I choose to be enthusiastic about life?

I really like this song, always have. The first half is kind of slow, feels like the period right before the rain comes. Then the song goes into more of a feel good groove remaniscent of the period right after a storm. I could be wrong, That's how it felt when I was younger.

I cant beleive that so little people have commented about this song. This is one of my alltime favourite songs. To me the song is about a sad lover that says evrytime his woman leaves him she takes the away his happiness with her. Maybe he refers to taking the weather as when shes with him theres sun shine (Happiness), when she leaves theres rain (Pain). How's that for an interpretation

Yeah great song, so few comments, i'm surprised too.
The song says something about the frailty of humanity to me with the weather being so awesome and out of human control with the small boat made of china being similar to the human race out in the middle of a dangerous nowhere and getting nowhere.
I think taking the weather with you has something to do with relaxing, letting the world take its course, don't panic, ultimately its all really out of control and i'm so glad it is.

The Finns had a sister who lived in Mount Pleasant Street in Te Awamutu (it wasn't number 57, but that sounded better so they used that).

This is an ace song. I've always looked upon it as the "weather" being memories but thats just me.

Ave Grave Thee More Shallows So this has been.my favorite song of OTEP's since it came out in 2004, and I always thought it was a song about a child's narrative of suffering in an abusive Christian home. But now that I am revisiting the lyrics, I am seeing something totally new. This song could be gospel of John but from the perspective of Jesus. Jesus was NOT having a good time up to and during the crucifixion. Everyone in the known world at the time looked to him with fear, admiration or disgust and he was constantly being asked questions. He spoke in "verses, prophesies and curses". He had made an enemy of the state, and believed the world was increasingly wicked and fallen from grace, or that he was in the "mouth of madness".The spine of atlas is the structure that allows the titan to hold the world up. Jesus challenged the state and in doing so became a celebrated resistance figure. It also made him public enemy #1. All of this happened simply because he was doing his thing, not because of any agenda he had or strategy. And then he gets scourged (storm of thorns)There are some plot holes here but I think it's an interesting interpretation. Siberian Kiss Glassjaw its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard Corpse I Fell In Love With Gadjits, The He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could. The Spy Doors, The Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there? Holiday Bee Gees @[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.Rate These Lyrics
