about

My summer soundtrack to 1987 was 10,000 Maniacs' "In My Tribe". Breathtakingly beautiful, melodic and moving. It's been a recurrent earworm ever since...

lyrics

This bell hangs well and injures none
We're sitting beneath in the evening sun
Tired and aching but the day's work is done
And Natalie sings about the weather

I wind my way home and fall through the door
Wrestle with sleep, ‘til we call it a draw
Bedclothes kicked off in a heap on the floor
While Natalie sings about the weather

The morning light drives a wedge to my eyes
So late to sleep too early to rise
Trapped in my head and buzzing like flies
Natalie sings about the weather

Lifting me up and away from the everyday
The warmest of winds blows all my cares away
It rides in on sunlight, it falls with the rain
It goes round and round 'cause it's stuck in my brain

It's rain on a tin roof, the crackle of fire
The first April swallow that lights on the wire
It picks me up and serves to inspire
When Natalie sings about the weather

It comes with the seasons down all the years
Locked in my head and trapped in my ears
It straightens my back, my cares disappear
When Natalie sings about the weather

Lifting me up and away from the everyday
The warmest of winds blows all my cares away
It rides in on sunlight, it falls with the rain
It goes round and round 'cause it's stuck in my brain

It's rain on a tin roof, the crackle of fire
The first April swallow that lights on the wire
It picks me up and serves to inspire
When Natalie sings
When Natalie sings
When Natalie sings about the weather
