Law Of The Jungle Lyrics

This is the law of the jungle
As old and as true as the sky
And the wolf that shall keep it shall prosper
And the wolf that shall break it shall die

The arms race long since out of control
Too many children starving and cold
Diplomats talk but never solve shit
Countries dying bit by bit

The TV beams the pictures all over the Earth
But the cries of anger are still not heard
Assassination, terrorism, war and crime
Why it's all just a sign of the times

Live Aid, Sports Aid, whatever you like
It's only a Band-Aid over human strife
It's time for your attitude to change
Time to realize that we're all to blame

This is the law of the jungle
As old and as true as the sky
And the wolf that shall keep it shall prosper
And the wolf that shall break it shall die

Self destruction is a fashionable trait
Born out of boredom in a Thatcherite state
Where the money holds the power
And the power holds the sway
And the people on the outside exist by the day

With no hope for the future, just hate for the past
Let's live for the moment now the dye has been cast
Just reasonless strangers who don't know themselves Tired of learning, deprived of wealth

Desperate days in dangerous times
Words without meaning, words without rhyme
Thoughts without motive, a panic for pride
Where there's no room for reason and nowhere to hide

This is the law of the jungle
As old and as true as the sky
And the wolf that shall keep it shall prosper
And the wolf that shall break it shall die

We're all the products of childhood, it's true
We all learned our lessons outside of the schools
We failed our exams but we couldn't have cared
Who wants to live in a stereotyped world

We follow our instincts, we make our mistakes
We never gave in where the lesser man breaks
We smile at the Devil and spit in his face
We welcome the moment of death's dark embrace

We listen to music, get high, get low
Fight with our problems, go with the flow
Positive thinking, no more negative fear
It's time to start living, now D-day is near

This is the law of the jungle
As old and as true as the sky
And the wolf that shall keep it shall prosper
And the wolf that shall break it shall die
