To lash out at the evidence of your deathly state.
“Well, stone the crows!” Basically, “I am so dead and all that’s left to do is fight to keep the buzzards from eating my flesh”. To stone the crow is pointless, because a crow only attacks you if you are dead. (You can’t literally throw stones at it if you’re dead), but it’s like panicking about the future and directing your anger about your misfortune and imminent death out towards something as harmless as a bird just because it reminds you of your awful predicament. We should never stone the proverbial crow, even if we are practically dead already, died before or are dead inside. In other words “don’t trip on small things when you have bigger fish to fry”. Or “don’t curse your fate or it’ll curse you.”

Get the thinks the sun rises to hear him crow mug.An old English expression, even perhaps dating back to anglo-saxon times. Used commonly in situations where an inconvience has occurred to one's self or others. Also an be used as a expletive when harm has fallen upon you. Bloody can be inserted into the phrase to further emphasise the inconvience/annoyance/pain.
