Fylingdale Flyer Lyrics by Jethro Tull

Fylingdale Flyer Lyrics

    Through clear skies tracking lightly from far down the line
    No fanfare, just a blip on the screen
    No quick conclusions now --- everything will be fine
    Short-circuit glitsch and not what it seems
    Fylingdale flyer --- you're only half way there
    Green screen liar ---
    For a second or so we were running scared

    On late shift, feeling drowsy eyes glued to the display
    Dead cert alert, lit match to the straw
    One last quick game of bowls --- we can still win the day
    Fail-safe; forget the things that you saw

    They checked the systems through and they read a-o.k.
    Some tiny fuse has probably blown
    Sit back; relax and soon it will just go away
    Keep your hands off that red telephone
