(AOL Dec. 17) -- Finally, someone is benefiting from the invasive TSA body searches: A Grammy-winning children's music artist, who after a four-decade career groping for a hit has written a song about the Transportation Security Administration that's touched a nerve -- among other body parts.
His name is Buck Howdy and his album, "Aaaaah! Spooky Scary Stories and Songs," won the 2010 Grammy Award for the Best Spoken-Word Album for Children.
However, by a stroke of good luck, he's finally getting the exposure he's long desired with a satirical ditty about the TSA's new procedures called "Help You Make It to Your Flight," a rewrite of the Kris Kristofferson hit "Help Me Make It Through the Night."
Lyrics in the song include this opening line: Take the ribbon from your hair/ Shake it loose, let it fall/ Leave your shoes right over there/ Now get up against the wall!
