PHOTO RECONNAISANCE
Belting down the runway, throttles opened wide,
See the mighty Blenheim swing from side to side,
If you're lucky you'll leave the deck,
And if you're not you'll break your neck
We're off to Bomb Benghazi
We're off to bomb B.G.
See the mighty Blenheim loaded up for ops,
Exasperated aircrew turning both the props,
Six times around we turn the blade,
As hopes of scrubbing begin to fade,
We're off to bomb Benghazi,
We're off to bomb B.G.
Squadron Leader Lyall, leader of our band,
Couldn't find the target, too much ruddy sand
He dropped his bombs out in the blue,
And so would you, too blooming true,
If you could see Benghazi
If you could see B.G.
