The Mark of The Claw - Procol Harum

A question of judgment 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 judgment concerned in the case
The method of access regarding the place
The possible motive the absence of blood
The theories unanswered regarding the thud
