0:23The steamer began to move slowly away
0:25but on the landward horizon
0:27appeared the silhouette of
0:29a fighting machine
0:30Another came And another Striding
0:33over hills and trees
0:35plunging far out to sea and
0:37blocking the exit of the steamer
0:39Between them lay the
0:39silent grey ironclad Thunder child
0:43Slowly it moved
0:44towards shore then
0:45with a deafening roar and whoosh of spray
0:48it swung about and drove at full speed towards
0:50the waiting Martians
0:55There were ships of shapes and sizes
0:58Scattered out along the bay
1:01and I thought I heard her calling
1:04As the steamer pulled away
1:07The invaders must have seen them
1:10As across the coast they filed
1:14Standin' firm between them
1:18There lay Thunder Child
1:26Moving swiftly through the waters
1:29Cannons blazing as she came
1:32Brought a mighty metal warlord
1:35Crashing down in sheets of flame
1:39Sensing victory was nearing
1:42Thinkin' fortune must have smiled
1:46People started cheering
1:49Come on Thunder child
1:53Come on thunder child
2:01The Martians released their black
2:03smoke but the ship sped on
2:06cutting down one of the
2:07tripod figures Instantly
2:09the others raised their heat rays
2:11and melted the Thunder child's valiant heart
3:19Lashing ropes and smashing timbers
3:22Flashing heat rays pierce the deck
3:25Dashing hopes for our deliverence
3:28As we watched the sinking wreck
3:32With the smoke of battle clearing
3:35Over graves in waves defiled
3:39Slowly disappearing
3:43Farewell Thunder child
3:47Slowly disappearing
3:51Farewell Thunder child
4:01Farewell Thunder child
4:08Farewell Thunder Child
4:18When the smoke cleared the little
4:20steamer had reached the misty horizon and Carrie was
4:23safe But the Thunderchild had vanished forever taking
4:27with her Man's last hope for victory The leaden sky
4:30was lit by green flashes cylinder following cylinder
4:34and no one and nothing was left
4:35now to fight them The
4:37Earth belonged to the Martians
The steamer began to move slowly away but on the landward horizon appeared the silhouette of a fighting machine Another came And another Striding over hills and trees plunging far out to sea and blocking the exit of the steamer Between them lay the silent grey ironclad Thunder child Slowly it moved towards shore then with a deafening roar and whoosh of spray it swung about and drove at full speed towards the waiting Martians There were ships of shapes and sizes Scattered out along the bay and I thought I heard her calling As the steamer pulled away The invaders must have seen them As across the coast they filed Standin' firm between them There lay Thunder Child Moving swiftly through the waters Cannons blazing as she came Brought a mighty metal warlord Crashing down in sheets of flame Sensing victory was nearing Thinkin' fortune must have smiled People started cheering Come on Thunder child Come on thunder child The Martians released their black smoke but the ship sped on cutting down one of the tripod figures Instantly the others raised their heat rays and melted the Thunder child's valiant heart Lashing ropes and smashing timbers Flashing heat rays pierce the deck Dashing hopes for our deliverence As we watched the sinking wreck With the smoke of battle clearing Over graves in waves defiled Slowly disappearing Farewell Thunder child Slowly disappearing Farewell Thunder child Farewell Thunder child Farewell Thunder Child When the smoke cleared the little steamer had reached the misty horizon and Carrie was safe But the Thunderchild had vanished forever taking with her Man's last hope for victory The leaden sky was lit by green flashes cylinder following cylinder and no one and nothing was left now to fight them The Earth belonged to the Martians
