THE ARMADA
When the Spanish armada . Down channel did go, Drake was quietly bowling In lamed Plymouth hoe. Said he "My good Sirs We will iinish our game.. Then sail after the. Spaniards And put them to shame." liero Drake drove the Spaniards Into a lierce gale Is a glorious chapter Of old England's tale So ended the fond dreams Of Philip of Spain Who sought to bind free men With slavery's chain. Our Allied Armada Is ready to sail, In tyranny's coffin To drive the last nail. There are thousands of ships And a navy of Drake's With soldiers and airmen Who for hearth and home's sake. Will drive the last Nazi Back to Berlin; There to witness the. end Of that cesspool of, sin. The mad pape.rhanger The Huns, biggest bung • Who richly deserves To be publicly hung. H. SERGANT
