They Control The Weather

Post by jeff robertson »

have you seen my lady's eyes
make the rain fall when she cries?

girls control the weather.
yeah they control the weather.

have you heard the wind and snow
when my baby treats me cold?

girls control the weather.
yeah they control the weather.

have you felt the sun above
when she blinds me with her love?

girls control the weather.
yeah they control the weather.
yeah.

They Control The Weather


Some of them are secret, and some we all well know
Some of them have sidekicks, and some want to fly solo
Some of them are bachelors, yet some are married men.
Some just have no choice and others do it 'cause they can.

CHORUS:
They control the weather and they can make the Earth shake
They can fly up to the stars or to the bottom of a lake
They can fight for justice and keep evil ones at bay
They are superheroes and they're here to save the day.

One has a red cape and is stronger than a train
Another has a magic ring that makes whatever's in his brain
Another one can run real fast across the ground or up a wall
And another has a belt that has just everything at all
Some can fly and some can use the powers of their mind
But no matter what they do, they will use it for mankind.
"Out of all I've learned in Life,
You always keep your friends close to your heart,
cause they'll help you if you're falling down..."

Those Meddling Kids - They Control the Weather

A mile above the sea you put your feet up on the dash
I don't know what these trees are
But I'm sure that they're not sycamores
A switchback road descends to the Cirque de Navacelle
I remeber the girl at the ice cream stand
17 with a crooked smile
With a crooked smile

You always think without speaking
The lonely nights remind me of the rest of my life
You sleep through the thunder
You sleep through the lightning

The town we left behind was no good for us so we left together
The people in the shadows make all the decisions
And they control the weather
They control the weather
But your garden won't grow with only rain
It won't grow with only sunshine
It's an art striking a balance
The two don't come at the same time
They don't come at the same time
We don't come at the same time

Faith and hope are driving me on
The lonely miles remind me where I've come from
We arrive in Sarlat city, to the old town like in '98.

Missed the "We Control the Weather" Deadline, but here's the lyrics I wrote.

They Control the Weather
By Level Nivelo


It’s raining again, and there’s nothing I can do
I have to take a nap as the barometer drops
Though I promised we’d meet up, I really want to see you
Nothing I can do until it stops

In you I can confide
That I can’t go outside
Somehow I forgot
We can’t get together
‘Cause they control the weather
Whether I like it or not

Like Blake’s jungle tiger, now the sun is burning bright
It’s really strange, I think, for Hallowe’en
I can’t go and trick or treat with you tonight.
I’ll need gobs and gobs of sunscreen

In you I can confide
That I can’t go outside
Somehow I forgot
We can’t get together
‘Cause they control the weather
Whether I like it or not

The world is out of my control
There’s something that they stole
I think it was my soul
I feel just like a lemming

I know you’re losing patience
I don’t live up to expectations
But grant me congratulations
At least we’re still IMing

Look at the snow look at the snow look at the snow look at the snow

In you I can confide
That I can’t go outside
Somehow I forgot
We can’t get together
‘Cause they control the weather
Whether I like it or not

Look at the snow look at the snow look at the snow look at the snow (fade out into TV static noise)

They Control the Weather
by Ross Durand

Well be careful what you wish for
When you wish for the fog to lift
Grandpa leaned in a little closer
As if his words were a gift

He said

The fog may make it hard to see
And even harder to work
But the one thing you got to know about fog
It’s where the spirits of evil lurk

They control the weather
Yeah they can stop the rain
And I can still remember the years
When it never came
They control the sun
And they control the wind
Like the kind that came and blew the farm away
Just pray it never comes again

And some of the older folks think I’m crazy
To do the things I do
But I never cross the spirits of fog
And that’s what I’m telling you

Keep all the kids inside
Let the fog wet the ground
It may not be much but it’s al that we’ve got
When the spirits come around

They control the weather
Yeah they can stop the rain
And I can still remember the years
When it never came
They control the sun
And they control the wind
Like the kind that came and blew the farm away
Just pray it never comes again

So keep our voice down
Avert your eyes
Leave the spirits alone
As they’re driftin by

Cause they control the weather
They can stop the rain
They used their evil once
Let’s just be sure they never do again.

I get home and put the weather on the TV
I feel like there's something that they're not telling me
They always predict the weather without a blunder
Doesn't it ever make you wonder?

Doesn't it make you wonder?


I don't trust the weatherman
When the weather always goes according to his plan
Meteorologists always seemed sneaky
Just let me in your studio to take a peaky
I know they've got a magic box
Maybe they hide it in inside their socks
They say they analyze the data and guess
But I know something to which they won't confess

They control the weather
They control the weather



They control the weather
They control the weather
They control the weather
They control the weather



They control the weather
They control the weather
They control the weather
They control the weather

This is the town where Howard Hughes
Used to hide out in a suite at the end of the Strip
So that only his closest associates knew
Whether he was okay or he'd finally flipped.

And this is the town where they promise it's safe
To go walking around at four a.m.
Yet it's also the place where Tupac was killed;
I guess Tupac was just not important to them.

They control the weather
The way you control what you watch on TV
What happens in Vegas
Is run by the men
In an office upstairs
That you'll never see.

This is the town where they pump oxygen in
To the room you've been comp'd on the thirty ninth floor
So you can't go to sleep and you finally give up
Go back down to the tables and gamble some more.

(chorus)

I've got a system, I know I'm a winner
I will be going back home with a pile,
Yet the guys at McCarran just say, "Welcome to Vegas"
Smiling at me with that mysterious smile.

(chorus)
