Under the Radar lyrics

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!
