• Fanning and Fortune - Tanks That Broke The Ranks

In No Man's Land one early morn at sixty in the shade
From out the British lines there came the famous Tank Brigade
The Huns began to strafe 'em, couldn't make it out at all
Especially when the tanks began the Caterpillar crawl.

And the tanks went on, and they strolled along with an independent air
And their guns began to blare, and the Huns began to swear
For they pulled the trees up by the roots, and they made the Huns look like galoots
Did the tanks that broke the ranks out in Picardy.

The Huns peeped through their trenches, for they couldn't understand.
They cried "Here comes the British Navy, sailing on the land!"
The Kaiser saw them also and, as through the trench he ran,
He shouted out to Tirpitz "Hush! Here comes the bogey man!"

And the tanks went on, and they strolled along with an independent air
Said the Huns, "It isn't fair! You're not fighting on the square!"
At the fortress then they made a call and started walking through the wall
Did the tanks that broke the ranks out in Picardy.

When Hindenburg first saw a tank he chaffed and made a fuss.
He said to Little Willie "It's a motor omnibus!"
Then Little Willie saw it and he made a rude remark
Said he, "It's not a 'bus at all - it's Noah inside his Ark!"

And the tanks went on, and they strolled along with an independent air
And a German colonel there nearly lost his ginger hair
From inside the tank there came a claw, and it pulled him through the early door
And they took him for a joy-ride round Picardy.

And they strolled along to the Bois Boulong with an independent air,
Up and down each thoroughfare, and they didn't seem to care;
Then the little bantam driver cried to all the Tommies,
"Jump inside And it's tuppence all the way from here to Berlin".
