| 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! |
