Lyrics

Walking 'round the   singing Stormy Weather
At Fifty Seven Mount Pleasant Street
Well it's the   room,
but everything's  
You can fight the   , but not the dream

Things ain't cookin' in my  
Strange   wash over me
Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
Couldn't   the blue  

Everywhere you go,
always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather, the weather with you

Well, there's a small boat made of  
It's going   on the mantlepiece
Well, do I lie like a   lizard
Or do I sing like a   released?

Everywhere you go,
always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather,
take the weather, the weather with you

Everywhere you go,
always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go,
always take the weather,
take the weather, the weather with you
Legend

Meaning

The song is about the effect a person has on their surroundings by the type of person they are, whether it be good or bad

"We were trying to imagine a time and a place, and the line 'Walking 'round the room singing Stormy Weather' helped us get into some atmosphere of somebody troubled who is always on their own in a room. We were trying to find lines that described the scene, like the 'small boat made of china', and that feeling of ennui or languishing that permeates the song. Ultimately, the theme of the song is, of course, that you are creating your own weather, you are making your own environment, always."
