Put aside inflation

Back burner global warming

The way we handle secrets

Is what really needs reforming

 

The Intelligence Community

Judging from appearances

Loses lots of documents

To folks who don’t have clearances

 

You can call me biased

Or label me a “homer”

But “Intelligence” Community

May be a misnomer

 

For I’m telling you Intelligence

Is what they have a lack of

When documents they’re tracking

They can’t seem to keep track of

 

They’re visiting the archives

For withdrawals, not deposits

Taking out our secrets

To keep them in their closets

 

The latest little scandal

Will never come to trial

As sources in the White House

Issued this denial

 

When old Joe Biden heard the news

He had the shock of shocks

He never should have asked to borrow

Sandy Berger’s socks

 

Which of these is worse, my friends

I put the case to you

Having secret papers

Or not knowing that you do?

 

This existential crisis

Needs a quick solution

Before those folks in Washington

Misplace the Constitution
