Tipping The Lion Lyrics

"Tipping the Lion" was the name given to a violent act committed by the London street gang Mohocks in the early 18th century. It involved finding an innocent person, crushing in their nose with a large piece of iron, and then gouging out their eyes with the thumbs.

It might be about that, but I'm not sure. Does anyone else think so?

Great song though. I love the guitar and drums.
