The roar of the **** automatic guns
That threw their exploding flak shells
Mixed with the shout of our engines
And bone dry rattle of our machine guns
Gave the French battle scene life
As we strafed and bombed our enemy
To give our troops more time
Our biplanes were made to fight the last war
Not a Blitzkreig but a target was a target
We went after the ******* all the way
Our six Hawker Hector biplanes still had teeth
Four yellow painted 125 pound bombs
And two small machine guns aimed by both crew
City of Manchester Squadron grabbing their chance
Aircrew of the Royal Air Force serving King and Country
In the darkest hour as the **** war machine came
Seemingly unstoppable and utterly invinsible
Except when the RAF biplanes attacked...
