How's it going? 「調子どう?」 →調子はどうですか?  I'm under the weather. 「調子悪いんだ」 →気分が優れません I'm in a good mood. 「調子いい!」  I'm in a bad mood. 「調子わるい!」 I think generally it express physical or mental condition. Maybe it originally came from musical expression. But today we use this mailnly these meanings.

If you want understand the text, you need read all sentences. 調子 will be mean that, about is the theme. Try to understand the sence of conversation. If the words have allways only one meaning, it would be impossible to translate.
