Lyrics
Jonathan Wilcox, answered an advert
Next to Mercedes, in the Sunday magazine
The RAF needs aircrew, he's got nothing else to do
So they dressed him all in blue and they gave him a machine
They trained him for ages, we paid his wages
And he passed from Cranwell, ceremoniously
The band played loudly, his mother said proudly
He's off to the clouds to defend you and me
Low flying, you certainly make your presence felt
Low flying, you certainly fly below the belt
Call this peacetime? It's more like Mannheim
During an air raid in 1944
Jonathan's Phantom frightens our children
Ma, put the kettle on, cause he's coming through the door
Low flying, you certainly make your presence felt
Low flying, you certainly fly below the belt
Low flying, you certainly make your presence felt
Low flying, you certainly fly below the belt
Don't fly in the country, go to the city
Where you'll find more voters than sheep
Don't be sinister, try Westminster
During the day, when the house is asleep
Low flying, you certainly make your presence felt
Low flying, you certainly fly below the belt
Low flying, you certainly make your presence felt
Low flying, you certainly fly below the belt
Low flying, you certainly make your presence felt
Low flying, you certainly fly below the belt
Low flying
