Analysis of Weather Report



There's  a
movement of atmospherics
pressure on the land,
the weight of air
presses down on us, the

rat-race grows; tension increases.

We want to equalise the difference
the way that the wind will blow
our world has become
a different place to know.

the more things change
the more they remain, same
Čím viac sa veci menia tým viac ostávajú rovnaké.

In it's web; the world hangs
on a psychic thread, and
if it snaps...

the red button
the middle finger
Červené tlačidlo
Vztýčený prostrednìk

We want to trust,we want
to see and enjoy the good in people.
hoping for hope - constantly
hope keeps you waiting

Patience gets results
Trpezlivosť ruže prináša

Sometimes there is, rain
Občas je tam, dážď

The pressure rises, constantly
the warmth of days, vapor rises to
colder upper levels becoming cloudy
positive to negative, sparks lightning.

sometimes the vapor is just too heavy
gravity comes into play on that weight
Cumulus to cumulonimbus cries rain.

'pon  window panes  
               of rainy afternoons
