The Bidding by Tally Hall

I've been (1)________________ in a cardboard box,
Spending every dollar at the liquor shop,
And even though I know I haven't got a lot
I try to give you love until the day you drop.

I've been (2)________________ like a Pavlov dog,
Sent my independence out to take a hike.
All you got to do is activate my bell,
And I'll fetch you anything you like

Going once,
Going twice,
Every man here has a price.

Over there,
Sold to not a single (3)________ in here

I've been here like a thousand times,
Dated every woman in the atmosphere.
I've been to every continent,
Broken all the hearts in every hemisphere,
And if I'm not the type of guy you like to circumvent,

Won't these gentlemen suffice?
Any here,

Any motions any where.

Going twice,
Going thrice,
Guess this means we'll go four times a lady,

And I'll give you all you'll ever need,

So (10)________ ladies,
Are hunting for mates,
And the prospect are good,
But the date's never great.
Over here,
Over there,
Over where,
Anywhere.
They're too busy,
For winning,
The bidding,
To get any sold.
