Lyrics
Dogs roaming the desert
Looking for easy meat
Little fury darlings
Not surviving the heat
Eat thru the skin
Cut thru the heart
Leaving lustrous bones
Soon be falling apart
But the dogs
Never dare to chase
No Lion around
Lion rules the plain
All his power released
In a single leap
Truly King of the Beasts
When hunting his prey
No prey dies alone
Keeping hold of them tight
Until back at his throne
And the dogs
Never dare to chase
No Lion around
Oh Mother of Nature
You made him too well
Distinguishing features
Skin easy to sell
Why the Lion will end
He can't elude
Remains of his creature
Someone else's food
But the dogs
Never dare to eat
The Lion's heart
No the dogs
Never dare to eat
The Lion's heart
