Analysis of Secrets Untold
Robert Berry 1983
6 UFOs hovering over water, whoever told would surely get slaughtered.
Secrets unfold secrets Untold, how many secrets Secret Service holds.
3 nights 2 days watching day and night,
with them in plain sight.
Here comes the Blackcats ready for whatever blink of an eye, what just happened? did they hear, did they see us, surely don't want to be us.
Sounds of wind hear them scatter, straight up in the sky disbursed.
Fast as light not a Blackcats in sight.
Fastest jets we had back then, never stood a chance UFOs gone with the wind.
