THAT BRATT-I-AM, THAT BRATT-I-AM, I DO NOT LIKE THAT BRATT-I-AMAugust 31, 2022 -by Peterr
Red Docs, Blue Docs . . .
In the far-away land of Mar-A-Lago
sits a once-vaunted leader, now brought very low.
His voice, once ubiquitous, lordly, and loud
has become but a whimper, no longer so proud.
The cameras have vanished, the crowds have all shrunk,
as he scrambles for donors, this fallen-down punk.
And then come his lawyers, with news of a guest,
A visit un-looked for, unwelcome, unblessed.
That Bratt-I-Am, that Bratt-I-Am,
I do not like that Bratt-I-Am.
You must return those stolen docs.
You must return them, yes, every box.
I do not have a box of docs,
and they are mine, you lying fox.
But then they came and then they found
docs aplenty, all around . . .
One doc, two docs
red docs, blue docs
Docs TOPSECRET/SCI
Docs with pictures from on high
Docs with covers, docs with stamps,
Docs in files marked terror camps
Docs from spies and docs from techs
Docs bout planes on navy decks
Docs on armies, docs on friends
Docs on missiles, docs on end!
I do not like you, Bratt-I-Am!
I do not like your little scam.
You only fight cause I am so strong!
You only fight cause Biden is wrong!
Besides, I dont have the docs that you seek
or, if I do, theyre mine, free to keep!
A pause, then that voice so quietly speaks
pricking his bubble; his vanity leaks.
Theres only one president, you see,
and you are not it, quite obviously.
Youve filed lots of lawsuits and lost every one
and Biden, not you, is the one who has won.
The law is quite clear: these docs are ours.
You have no magic pixie dust powers.
You cannot claim them, nor take them home;
they belong to us, not you alone.
You must return those stolen docs.
You must return them, yes, every box.
These classified docs are not like cheap porn
Theyre CONFIDENTIAL and SECRET, ORCON, and NOFORN.
Theyre stuff you cant look at outside of a SCIF.
There are but a few even granted a sniff.
They should be under watch, behind guarded doors,
not left in a closet or stashed into drawers.
They must be sent back, each one of these docs
They must be returned, yes, every last box.
Well come to you, or you to us.
You can return them on a bus.
You can return them on a train.
You can return them on a plane.
You can return them at your house.
You can return them with a mouse.
You must return those stolen docs.
You must return them, yes, every box.
But I *want* them, because they are mine!
and you cannot have them dont cross that line!
Have your read this warrant, here?
Do you not see? Is it not clear?
The judge agrees you have no choice.
You must comply, so please, no more noise.
You must return those stolen docs
You must return them, yes, every box.
That Bratt-I-Am, that Bratt-I-Am,
I do not like that Bratt-I-Am!
Boxes of documents, boxes of pics,
Boxes of letters be sure therere no tricks!
Well carefully pack them and give you a list
(It *will* be redacted, but well give you the jist)
Well guard them as well as the law says we must.
Well guard them much better than you have, we trust.
For crimes have been crimed, as we have deducted:
espionage, theft, and justice obstructed.
The proof, we believe, will emerge box by box
from rooms where youve kept them without any locks.
The charges will follow, and names will be named
and soon the guilty in court will be blamed.
Justice is coming, says Bratt-I-Am,
and that once-vaunted leader can only say . . .
Damn.
