Lyrics
MISTER TSA
MY BAGS ARE CHECKED... THE AIRPORT'S PACKED;
I'VE TRAVELED FAR... I'M HEADIN' BACK;
GOT MY BOARDING PASS IN HAND, I'M ON MY WAY;
BUT FIRST I GOTTA' FACE THE TSA.
(CHORUS):
TAKE MY LAPTOP... TAKE MY SHOES;
TAKE A PICTURE OF MY BODY, LOOK AT ANYTHING YOU CHOOSE;
YOU CAN PAT ME DOWN... ALL AROUND; TREAT ME LIKE A FOOL;
BUT MISTER TSA... DON'T TOUCH THE FAMILY JEWELS.
THE LINE IS LONG... AN' I'M UP NEXT;
I HOPE TO SAVE SOME SELF RESPECT;
MY BELT IS OFF AND MY PANTS ARE FALLIN' DOWN;
AN' I'M FEELIN' LIKE A SILLY CIRCUS CLOWN.
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
GOTTA' HAVE A LITTLE PATIENCE... SWALLOW ALL YOUR PRIDE;
SO I'M STEPPIN' IN THE SCANNER, SHOWIN' EVERYTHING INSIDE;
(CHORUS / TAG)
