24th of August 1940, Squadron 303
Scrambles for the first time
And they’re hungry for a victory
RAF fighter command reluctant
But their desperate
The send the Polish squadron into battle
They are all that’s left
303 Squadron is ready to fly
Scramble, get airborne
Revenge in the sky
303 Squadron, they kill and survive
They don’t beg for freedom
They fight for it in the sky
15th of September
And the darkest hour has now come
RAF total commitment
Out-numbered by four to one
Maybe it’s impossible to win this fight
But still they go
The Polish pilots fuelled by hate
For those who have destroyed their home
303 Squadron is ready to fly
Scramble, get airborne
Revenge in the sky
303 Squadron, they kill and survive
They don’t beg for freedom
They fight for it in the sky
303 Squadron is ready to fly
Scramble, get airborne
Revenge in the sky
303 Squadron, they kill and survive
They don’t beg for freedom
They fight for it in the sky
