Eugene Sue

[Verse 1]

When the sky opens wide

And the late winter rain goes wild

I don't like it

And I curse God to His face

[Chorus 1]

And I say to myself

And to anyone else who will listen:

"Save yourselves

Or hang yourselves

But I am leaving this wretched place"

But when you call down curses

On the God that made you

You play hide and seek with trouble

Trouble's gonna find you too

[Verse 2]

When the ship finds land

And they throw me onto the sand

There's a guy with a rifle

Waiting there

[Chorus 2]

And I say

To nobody listening

"This is fine by me"

And ideas fly through my mind

The sweat cakes my hair

Yeah, when you call down curses

On the God that made you

You play hide and seek with trouble

Yes, the trouble's gonna find you too
