OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF MANIFEST DESTINY

MacArthur says he’ll come back later
Chapter 109
And so the Yanks had to put up with about a year of bad news,
2bAs the Philippines fell,
3cAnd the Brits tried to keep the war alive in Europe by fighting in dAfrica,
4eAnd the Russkies took a dreadful beating from the Krauts,
5fBecause the Russkies had comrades,
6gAnd the Krauts had guns,
7hWhich resulted in millions and millions of dead comrades,
8iAnd more great speeches from Churchill,
9And not a lot of heroics from the Yanks,
10Except for jGeneral MacArthur,
11kWho escaped from the Philippines somehow,
12But told them he would come back later,
13lOr words to that effect.
