When dusk went out You awoke to dawn You tripped and fell, but stood and walked right on I told you once and I told you twice But you didn't hear so you paid the price In time It was an omen... It was an omen, so you can't say it wasn't there You broke the gla** when the kettle blew Your sister called you [?] of the gloom I told you twice and I told you again That half the time is double again My friend It was an omen, and you can see the meaning now It was an omen, and the cards are taking out You bid him sanctuary but never won at all Leave everything to chance The chance can throw you like a stone You had a revelation when The flames arose to melt your skin You walked along and [?] And flew around the world entire In time It was an omen [x4]
