THE BOOK OF DAMN
YANKEES
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF MANIFEST DESTINY
The Yanks tidy up after the war
Chapter 128
Back home in America, things were going pretty well overall,
2Although there weren’t any houses for the returning troops to live in,
3And not enough colleges and universities for them to go to,
4pAnd not enough cars and things for them to buy,
5Which meant that the Yanks were going to have to get busy and make a whole bunch of things,
6qNot to mention money,
7rWhich they knew how to do,
8Because they were Yanks,
9sAnd there wasn’t anything Yanks couldn’t do,
10tBecause they were the best and the bravest and the smartest and the nicest world power in the whole history of mankind,
11Bar none,
12As any of the Yanks could have told you,
13uBecause the Yanks have always been such great students of history and world affairs,
14Even if they couldn’t spell v“Mesopotamia” to save their lives.
