The Lyrics

Only my 2nd SJH YC parody after "Bloated Goat!"
An anti-sonar mat
Oppanol was good news
Type XVIIC the first to use
U-480 did cruise
Shot down a Canso* en route,
Sank and damaged 4 boats**,
For seven hours the RN led the hunt
U-boat eluded due to rubber coat

Killed sound, adhesive stick.
4 mm thick
Types XXI and XXIII would get it
Fooled sonar, less deep divin‘, more darin’
Germans called it “Alberich skin***

No need to flee the scene
When the U-boats came close
They couldn’t be seen
U-boat Captains did toast
Merchants to defeat
Schnorkel tarnmatte coat****
But yet it came too late…

Oppanol rubber coat

Killed sound, adhesive stick.
4 mm thick
Types XXI and XXIII would get it
Fooled sonar, less deep divin‘, more scarin’
Germans called it “Alberich skin”

In ‘45 was a test
Type XXIII to go
‘Twas U-4709,
Reductions showed
Rest sat in the shipyards
The work progress went slow,
Day and night bombs raining down
To strike the new tech boats

Oppanol rubber coat

Killed sound, adhesive stick.
4 mm thick
Types XXI and XXIII would get it
Fooled sonar, less deep divin‘, more scarin’
Germans called it “Alberich skin”

[Looking for a new sea-war win]
* RCAF Canso was a Canadian Catalina aircraft
** 3 boats sunk were: covette HMS Alberni, minesweeper HMS Loyalty, and a merchant ship Ornminster. Another merchant ship was damaged, Fort Yale
*** Alberich was the codename of the program
**** Tarnmatte was a U-boat stealth coating made of synthetic rubber and iron oxide powder
