Tooth and Claw

The clouds spew open, and bloody rain does fall
On the good and the bad, on the rich and the poor
Insane laughter splits the heavens
Spits on the prayers of the masses
Is God in his heaven, is all right with the world?
Is God in his heaven, wrapped in a shroud?
See the dove fall, beneath the eagle’s claws
Obeys the one law, of tooth and claw
The law of the strong: this is our law
And the joy of the world
Up to the heavens, an eagle soared
To meet the sun
Where love is the call
Up to the heavens, an eagle soared
Where the sun waits
And blood is the call
The shield and sword
And tooth and claw
The law of the strong: this is our law
And the joy of the world
