100 Tampons

Remember when NASA sent a

Woman to space for

Only six days and they gave her

One hundred tampons, one hundred tampons

And asked, "Will that be enough?"

'Cause they didn't know if that was enough

These are our nation's greatest minds

They are literally rocket scientists

One hundred tampons, one hundred tampons

I can picture it now, come with me

I'm Sally Ride and I'm going to space for the first time

I'm walking tall, I feel so proud

Then I see a man running panicked through the crowd

He's holding a large bag

I think, "What can this be?"

And then he hands one hundred tampons to me

And then he hands one hundred tampons to me

For one week

They could've asked me

I would've said, "Maybe thirty-three"

'Cause even if it were my period week

I might've already brought some with me

But you know

Thanks, I guess

One hundred tampons

A hundred tampons

525,600 tampons

525,000 tampons in space
