Little boxes in the ballroom
Little boxes in the business suites
Little boxes in the bathroom
With the crystal chandelier
Some are briefings on the H-Bomb
Some are menus, some are battle plans
And they’re all mixed in with golf shirts
And he wants them on the plane.
And the papers from the White House
Were declassified automatically
When they put them into boxes
To be flown out on the plane.
They were counsel from his lawyers.
He’s a privileged executive.
And they’re all mixed in with golf shirts
And he wants them on the plane.
And they’re all stored on a golf course
Where they can’t keep their servers dry
But they show them moving boxes
Down the hallway near the pool.
They were transferred in the summer time
To be shown off in interviews.
They were planted by the Deep State.
And he wants them on the plane.
And the boxes in the storage room
Are spilling state secrets there
They were stored too ricky-ticky stacky
And he wants them on the plane.
Some are letters from a leader.
Some are deep-cover spy reports.
And they’re all mixed in with golf shirts
And he wants them on the plane.
