I'm looking for terrorists In jeans, clean-shaven, But with a bulging mid-riff. Will he have a back-pack, Carry a brown paper lunch With a portmanteau. I just gave the valet my keys, And I didn't check his shoes And certainly not his under-armour. I live ten thousand miles away, Just down the street; So why hurt me. We cheer for the Bo-Sox Side by side, He's familiar to my eyes. I believe he was changing my oil When I saw the sideways glance, But I can't be sure, When I don't know What to look for.

Your Average Terrorist
I'm looking for terrorists In jeans, clean-shaven, But with a bulging mid-riff. Will he have a back-pack, Carry a brown paper lunch With a portmanteau. I just gave the valet my keys, And I didn't check his shoes And certainly not his under-armour. I live ten thousand miles away, Just down the street; So why hurt me. We cheer for the Bo-Sox Side by side, He's familiar to my eyes. I believe he was changing my oil When I saw the sideways glance, But I can't be sure, When I don't know What to look for.
