A bad omen, a hurricane, a tornado, a typhoon, a tsunami, etc.

It was written after pimike's pastor wrote a book about the world ending in May 21st 1970.

Could be that, the escalation of the war, or lots of other things. It was a very tumultuous time.

Until recently I thought this song was about needing to take a crap. Apparently I was mis-hearing the lyrics. I thought they were saying:

Don't go 'round tonight, well it's bound to take your life
There's a bathroom on the right
