Does it mention the Billy Connolly song: "Jesus Christ, I'm Nearly Forty"?

WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN CHEESES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What a friend we have in cheeses
Cheddar muenster and Gruyere
But what a hassle tis to carry
past security at US Air.

O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we carried cheeses
on board a flight of US Air.

We were fondled and then X-rayed
Because of troubles in the air
The screener had tremendous courage
to plunge their hands in underwear.

Did we seem a fiend unfaithful
who would bomb without a care
Jesus is our cheese a weakness
in security at US Air.

Are we weak from ol bin Laden
cumbered with a load of care.
The guards ran to seek some refuge
from tin wrapped cheese we had to share.

Do the guards despise, forsake you?
at airports everywhere
They are armed and may likely shoot you
if they find some cheese in there.

By the time this made the papers
the headline was in total error.
Capture: praise and endless worship
for the guards at US Air.
