We'll not build new barriers
At our frontier,
But'll keep air carriers
At some North-East pier.
Whatever the trouble -
we'll get 'bag of nuts'!
Foe ‘ll burst like a bubble,
by thunder, like rats.
Hey, Bagdad-on-Hudson,
If you see 'bow wave'
Of captain or ensign
You'll always be safe.
If fortune get thinner
At some future block
The foe's time of winner -
"Five bells in last dog"...
