Give 'Em Back, They're MINE!

     (Verse 1) 
My boxes...? I lied o'er the oceans
of fare I declare b'long to me.
Shirts 'n' shoes, "Sam" Grant's* booze, 
White House notions...
Oh, bring back my boxes to me.
     * POTUS Ulysses Simpson ("Sam") Grant

     (Verse 2) 
There are Washington's wooden incisors
and a Jefferson family tree.
Some of Abe's stovepipe hats (plus: which POTUS train'd rats...?*)...
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!
     *Most probably POTUS Teddy Roosevelt, who kept the widest 
       variety of pets of any POTUS. However, as Drumpf routinely 
       just makes stuff up, it could have been any of them.

     (Refrain) 
Bring back! Bring back!
Oh, bring back my boxes to me, to me!
Bring back! Bring back!
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!

     (Verse 3) 
There's this doctrine once sign'd by Monroe.
(Treat me fairly; I might let you see.)
Truman's desk where bucks stopp'd; Clinton's tenor (Bill bopp'd)...
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!

     (Verse 4) 
There is Teddy's big stick (Ted walk'd softly).
There's Barack's White House caller i.d. 
There's directions for cakes Dolley Madison bakes...
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!

     (Refrain)
Bring back (etc.)...

     (Verse 5) 
There is FDR's cigarette holder;
Jackie Kennedy's old potpourri.
There's a cosh with which JFK roll'd her.
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!

     (Verse 6) 
There is William Taft's calorie counter.
There is Betty Ford's flask of chablis.
There's the cot on which Gerry would mount her.
Oh, bring back my boxes to me.

     (Refrain) 
Bring back (etc.)...

     (Verse 7)
There is Kim Jung Un memorabilia --
letters framing our famed repartee.  
Plus some photos of Brett's* pedophilia...
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!
     *Probably refers to Justice Kavanaugh

     (Verse 8
There are snapshots of Clarence and Ginny
smoking weed at an afternoon tea.
Harland Crow'd flown the pair to New Guinea...
Oh, bring back my boxes to me! 

     (Refrain) 
Bring back! Bring back!
Oh, bring back my boxes...to MEDJT!
Bring back! Bring back!
Oh, bring back my boxes to me!

     (more --MUCH, MUCH more -- to come: 
a work in progress)
