Security Camera Lyrics

Security Camera

Security Camera scans me in the airport Tequila Ria

Blinking red and haunting from the corner in the darkness near the ceiling

The first time that I noticed it was watching I thought it happenstance

And the second time saw it I knew it wasn't accident or chance

I'm hypnotized

I feel like dancing

It stares at me while I sway to and fro

I'm convinced behind that red light is a goddess with hips as white as snow

And that she's sitting there and leaning on her elbows

The control room lights are dim

Day dreaming that someday she'll meet prince charming and then wondering if I'm him

Why me?

I sit here wondering just a relic wearing sixteen year old clothes

The security guard that's watching must be snorting something goofy up their nose

I look around the lens moves sideways nod my head and it bounces up and down

I squint my eyes it zooms in tightly

Purse my lips and I dare not make a sound

Staring at the camera I start mouthing my phone number with my lips

I imagine that she's wearing a gray uniform black holsters on those hips

And that she watches me stop writing down this poem and press my lips against my thumb

And that she's loosening her necktie and sighing as my cell phone starts to hum

Why me?

I sit here wondering just a relic wearing sixteen year old clothes

The security guard that's watching must be snorting something goofy up their nose

I look around the lens moves sideways nod my head and it bounces up and down

I squint my eyes it zooms in tightly

Purse my lips and I dare not make a sound

She sends a text that says I know that you've been watching I've been watching you as well

I'm dreaming that you're here with me our souls are intertwined and start to gel

I wink back at the camera like I understand precisely what she needs

Hit reply and text her yes exactly let's find out where this leads

She answers lead and I will follow

I text back IMHO

Surely you and I could share a drink and find a quiet place to go

You might be right I hear quite sultry and I think I've heard a voice inside my head

She says I'm not behind that camera I'm sitting right beside you now instead

Why me?

I sit here wondering just a relic wearing sixteen year old clothes

The angel here beside me must be snorting something goofy up her nose

She rests her palm upon my thigh and I've never felt so hungry and adored

Then they announce my plane is leaving it's last call for passengers to board

Yeah they announce my plane is leaving it's last call for passengers to board

Security camera scans me in the airport Tequila Ria
