Then rah-rah-rah on a rising note—my oath, they're racing now—

Look-out, you fool. Hang on!

The streaky water rushes by as the crest of the sea goes past,

And you see her hull from the hydroplanes to the heel of her wireless mast

Stand out and hang as she leaps the trough to dive at the next one—Blast—!

Look-out, you fool. Hang on!

In the hollow between she stops for breath, then starts her climb anew—

"I can see your guns and wireless mast, old girl, but I can't see you,

And you'd better be quick and lift again—she won't, she's diving through"—

Look-out, you fool. Hang on!
