https://soundcloud.com/japokeapeg/submarine-piratesA fitting Armistice day post, the story of my Grandfather who served on submarines in WW1
Submarine Pirates
Ran away at 16 for a life at sea,
Then Brought straight back home by the police.
Did it again the very next day,
“If he’s so desperate then we’ll let him stay.”
A dead end shot and the archduke was dead,
Thunder was rolling dark skies ahead.
Assigned as crew to a top secret boat,
Couldn’t say too much in the letter I wrote.
Chorus
Submarine Pirates, underhand and undersea
Submarine Pirates, sneaking round in the deep
Then coming home Jolly Roger flying free
Submarine Pirates, so ungentlemanly
Back to the valleys after the war,
I’ve heard they pay good money for stokers in the forge.
But the pull of the sea was too much to bear,
So it’s back to Plymouth to wear those flares.
Chorus
Black clouds over Europe had gathered again,
Our Merchant supply ships were being lost in the fray.
On “Courageous” I went to help them get through,
With a dozen Fairy Swordfish and their aircrew.
M8 Just south of Ireland she turned into the wind,
To set her Swordfish free.
But just then a glint … 3 wakes, 2 had hit.
It only took 20 odd minutes,
For Courageous to sink.
Chorus
