Curses are like young chickens, they always come home to roost.
To The Teeth
And he said the chickens all come home to roost
Yeah, (twas) forecasted this flood
Are we really going to sleep through another century
While the rich profit off our blood?
And true, may take some doing
To see this undoing through
But in my humble opinion
Here’s what I suggest we do
