Nobody saw our sails on the horizon |
|
Nobody heard propellers in the dawn |
|
Nobody smelt our coal fires were burning |
|
Nobody knew--under the radar we crept on. |
|
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning |
|
Here we come, fife and drum, propellers in the dawn |
|
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning |
|
Here we come, fife and drum, under the radar we crept on! |
|
Nobody saw our broadsides at their window |
|
Nobody heard our trapdoors swinging wide |
|
Nobody saw our cannons taking aim |
|
Nobody heard my whispered "Fire, blow their sides." |
|
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning |
|
Here we come, fife and drum, propellers in the dawn |
|
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning |
|
Here we come, fife and drum, under the radar we crept on! |
|
Somebody heard our cannon fire ringing |
|
Somebody saw the windows shattering |
|
Somebody saw the hooks and tethers flying |
|
Somebody saw my crew with swords drawn coming in! |
|
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning |
|
Here we come, fife and drum, propellers in the dawn |
|
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning |
|
Here we come, fife and drum, under the radar we crept on! |
