[verse 1]
i hate the day
i was born

i hate the day, i hate the day
you know the day that i was born

ever since i been born
a dark cloud been hangin over my head

i never see the sunshine
the clouds, they over my head all the time

oh i never see the sunshine
oh dark cloud hang over my head
all the time

i was born on a bad sign

oh trouble, all the time

i wonder when
is my trouble gonna end?

oh i wonder when, i wonder when
oh
oh when my trouble gonna end?

i was born on a bad sign

and a dark cloud hangs over my head all the time

left me on my own

when i was twelve years old
