Strip Down

I went up, to the cashier
With my bank card in my hand
She said, "Strip down facing me"
Something I'd misunderstand

"Right now and here?", I asked her
Modesty held me askew
She said, "If you want service,"
"That is what you'll have to do!"

The look on her face told me
She'd not wait a minute more
So I undid my trousers
And they fell down to the floor!

Then she rolled her eyes and said,
Words much to my chagrin
She said, "Strip down facing me,"
"Is how, your card go's in!

What I want to know is, what were you buying that was so important you 'striped down' for it?

In all honesty I'd probably strip down for anything. I have no shame!...............80)
