Song language: English
The Mark of the Claw |
| A question of judgement decided in haste |
| A case of malfunction an error of taste |
| A moment of madness occasioned by stress |
| A classic misjudgment a god-awful mess |
| The moment of panic preceding the crash |
| The sickening terror the defeating smash |
| A loud wail of sirens descend on the scene |
| The camera dissolves a crescendo of screams |
| The memory’s imprinted like some dreadful sore |
| The fearful reminder: the mark of the claw |
| A question of judgement concerned in the case |
| The method of access regarding the place |
| The possible motive the absence of blood |
| The theories unanswered regarding the thud |
| The outcome was certain the jury was hung |
| Their verdict resolved by ruling of thumb |
| The judgement was mercy: they tendered the plea |
| The judge raised his hand and the prisoner was free |
