Story Behind The Song

This is one of the songs that we loved performing in the earliest incarnation of Wilfred N & the Grown Men. We recorded it in my basement studio around 1990 and it still sounds pretty good today!

Song Description

He's all about the weather and she's all about climate. Stormy! But fun.

Lyrics

We talked about weather, we talked about climate
You're not even listening to the gist of my argument
We walked in the wet fields, we neglected the curfew
We talked about the same things from a different point of view
Cirrus and cumulonimbus, thunderclap lightning fall
Hail down upon us, but we never had a ball
I took a course, I know what you're talkin' about
High pressure, low pressure never get me down
I talk about weather - her specialty is climate
She wants to skip around the world, and I want to stay at home
You're my kind of person no matter what people say
We never had a picnic, but that's ok
Maximum precipitation for this time of year
Minimum manipulation is keeping you in gear
I was the first to rain, you were the first to snow
I drifted in on a breeze, you were the one to blow
If I had to do it again with you I would (do it again with you)
We never have any fun, but I still like you
'Cause you're nice to be with when you're not being moody
And I'm in the mood for you
And the pleasure's reciprocal when you're feeling stormy
It's one of the best things that you do
I feel your winds blowing up now
Right before me
