The Bidding by Tally Hall

I've been sleeping in a cardboard box,
Spending every (1)____________ at the liquor shop,
And (2)________ though I know I haven't got a lot
I try to give you love (3)__________ the day you drop.

I've been training 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 (4)________ has a price.
Over where,
Over there,
Sold to not a single lady in here

I've been here (5)________ 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,
Just remember 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 blow a couple bucks on me.

Going once,
Going Twice,
Won't these (6)__________________ 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 shop around.
And I'll give you all you'll (7)________ 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 (8)______________ 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.
