The Bidding by Tally Hall

I've been sleeping in a cardboard box,
Spending every (1)____________ at the liquor shop,
And even though I know I haven't got a lot
I try to give you (2)________ until the day you drop.

I've been (3)________________ 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 where,
Over there,
Sold to not a single (4)________ in here

I've been here (5)________ a thousand times,
Dated every (6)__________ 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,
Just (7)________________ not to love me when I disappear

I graduated at the top,
I like to take advantage of the bourgeoisie,
So if you have a fantasy of being a queen,
Maybe you should (8)________ a couple bucks on me.

Going once,
Going Twice,
Won't these gentlemen suffice?
Any here,
Any there,
Any motions any where.

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

I promise I'll be all you'll need,
Ever need,
You'll never have to shop around.
- Don't (9)________ around.
And I'll give you all you'll ever need,
Ever need.
Don't worry; I will never let you down,
Let you down,
Don't worry; I will never let you down.

So many 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.
