Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Falling down
West end girl
Trying to see yourself
Running in a
Number one
Shoot em up
Race to edge of the world
To the edge of the world
Knocking down
Waking up
You're a breaking girl
Hearts stop and seize
Making love in the weather
Making moves together
Staying close forever
Riding in our cars
From the moon to mars
Every day every night
Becomes a thousand hours
Come and follow you
Follow down to excess
Return to righteousness
Dancing late at night
Hunting high and low
With your pretty pink bow
Weather girl where did you go?
Girlfriend...
I really need you
Don't go
Don't go
Girlfriend...
I really miss you
Don't go
Don't go
Never making hesitation
Making everyone hold their breath
Criss-cross over miles of eyes
Ending looks shooting over
The heads are turning
Your shadow of death...
You're ready for this.
Weather girl where's your forecast?
Set the signal
Raining fire from the angels
Through the eye of a needle
Making moves making stars
Falling faster than the start
Of the end of the world
You're the breaking girl

The lyrics to Shiny Toy Guns’ song “The Weather Girl” are full of vivid imagery and metaphors that paint a picture of a woman who is both strong and vulnerable. The opening lines describe her as an “uptown falling down West End girl,” which suggests that she is outwardly successful but struggling internally. She is trying to “see herself” by running in a “shoot em up race to the edge of the world” – perhaps a metaphor for trying to find her place in the world and achieve her goals. But in doing so, she is also knocking down and breaking things, including her own heart.
Despite these struggles, the Weather Girl is also capable of great love and passion. She “makes love in the weather” and “makes moves” with someone she is “staying close forever” with. The repetition of the phrase “every day every night becomes a thousand hours” suggests that their time together is intense and meaningful. However, despite the strong connection between them, the Weather Girl seems to disappear. The lyrics repeatedly ask “where did you go?” and express a sense of loss and longing, with the singer begging her not to leave.
Overall, the song seems to be a tribute to a complicated woman who is both fierce and vulnerable, struggling but also capable of great love and passion.
