Dragon-Tiger Fight

Words by Paul Streckfus
Music by Jorge Lara, Juan Ramos,
Ernest Salaz, and Paul Streckfus

A mighty beast prowls the jungle floor
He's looking for another to settle a score
The two had a bargain that on this final night
They would see which one would win
The Dragon-Tiger fight

The cat sharpened his claws
The serpent flexed his scales
And they encircled each other

Monkeys in the court were eating fleas
From off their tails as they watched

The sky grew dark and cold
And the clouds converged on earth
The land was ripped by lightning
The maker of the dirt
The seas were overflowing
The rain poured from the sky
The fire from the mountain flowed down
And the human beings cried

Beasts were howling murder
The insects blocked the sun
When the fight was over
There was no winning one
The tiger's neck was broken
The dragon had no head
The jungle lost its leaders and the ground was stained blood-red.
