Lyrics Donald Fagen – Security Joan
Text:
Well, I guess I needed a miracle
If I was gonna make my flight
I had to get to gate C13
And it was still way out of sight
Something in my carry-on bag
Tipped off the X-ray machine
‘Cause then an angel straight from heaven
Asked me to «step behind that screen»
When I felt the wand sweep over me
You know I never felt so clean
Girl, you won’t find my name on your list
Honey, you know I ain’t no terrorist
Confiscate my shoes, my cell phone
You know I love, love, love you
Security Joan
I hung out at the Starbucks
Till just around boarding time
Then I strolled on back to the checkpoint
Just one thing on my mind
She flashed that crooked smile and said
«Well, I believe you missed your flight»
I said, «There’s been a minor change of plan
And I’ll be stayin’ for one more night»
I could tell from the way she looked at me
Everything was gonna be all right
Girl, you won’t find my name on your list
Honey, you know I ain’t no terrorist
Confiscate my shoes, my cell phone
You know I love, love, love you
Security Joan, search me now
Girl, you won’t find my name on your list
Honey, you know I ain’t no terrorist
Confiscate my shoes, my cell phone
You know I love, love, love you
Security Joan, hey, now
Honey, you know I ain’t no terrorist
Confiscate my shoes, my cell phone
You know I love, love, love you
Security Joan
