Lyrics
Weather Man
Hey Mr. Sun, you take your time
I?ll pour the tequila while you grow the lime
Hey Mr. Wind, get out of my face
You?re quite a fast-talker but you won?t win the race
Crazy how the weather can affect my mood
One day I?m flyin? as high as a kite
And the next I?m just rude
It?s the Weather Man oo-oooh
Mr. Weather Man ah-ahhh
Whether you?re ready or whether you?re not
Here I am ? Mr. Weather Man
Hey Mr. Cloud, don?t have to be so cirrus
Lately it seems you?re just afraid to be near us
Hey Mr. Rain, what you gotta say
All I know is I miss your face in L.A.
Crazy how the weather can take such a turn
One day I?m dancin? on slippery streets
And the next I get burned
It?s the Weather Man oo-oooh
Mr. Weather Man ah-ahhh
Whether you?re ready or whether you?re not
Here I am ? Mr. Weather Man
They say in Montana
Ten minutes will change it
Guess I?ll have to find a way
To make that arrangement
Well, the forecast may be good or bad
It?s quite win or lose
So I sit back, close my eyes, relax
And let the Weather Man choose
It?s the Weather Man oo-oooh
Mr. Weather Man ah-ahhh
Whether you?re ready or whether you?re not
Here I am ? Mr. Weather Man
Crazy ?bout the weather
Weather you?re never
Weather you?re never gonna change
Crazy ?bout the weather
Weather you?re never
Weather you?re never gonna change
Well it looks like tomorrow I?m stayin? in bed
?Cause that?s what the Weather Man said
That?s what the Weather Man said
