I also think there could have been someone there while writing it that had an interest in the political weather man everyone is talking about.
Nothing whatsoever to do with Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground, or any political statement at all. It's plainly stated in an interview with the vocalist herself. Songwriters always use dummy lines to flesh out a tune. She came up with "skin soft as leather, I'm the weatherman" as nonsense filler, and they decided it sounded cool, and decided to keep it. Don't overthink it. The Beatles did this, Sting does this, everyone does this.
Nonsense words, suddenly it sounds catchy, and there you have it. I have been a Dead Sara fan for awhile now and I don't know why I missed it, but all of sudden it hit me. Is this song about Bill Ayers. Bill being the original 'weatherman'. The lyrics are very in line with his sometimes violent, go for the kill , political dissidence. Lots of different looser interpretations here, but to me there's just too many similarities in the lyrics lining up with Ayers' beliefs and actions do not be about that.
When we got in the rehearsal room, Siouxsie came up with that riff. SM: She just started singing over it and everyone just started jamming on it, it was pretty easy to write. We got the skeleton of it pretty fast. He started writing the verses with a bass line and it just changed it. Now I have to write around it, what the f—k does this mean? I had to think of it in terms of that — just society.
I think that was the thing at the beginning to, I started doubting it. That had to be one of the things.
