The Bidding by Tally Hall

I've (1)________ (2)________________ in a cardboard box,
Spending every (3)____________ at the liquor shop,
And even though I know I haven't got a lot
I try to give you love (4)__________ the day you drop.

I've been (5)________________ like a Pavlov dog,
Sent my (6)________________________ 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 (7)________ has a price.
Over where,
Over there,
Sold to not a single lady in here

I've (8)________ here (9)________ a (10)________________ times,
Dated (11)__________ woman in the atmosphere.
I've (12)________ to (13)__________ continent,
Broken all the hearts in every hemisphere,
And if I'm not the (14)________ of guy you like to circumvent,
Just remember not to (15)________ me (16)________ I disappear

I graduated at the top,
I like to take advantage of the bourgeoisie,
So if you have a fantasy of (17)__________ a queen,
Maybe you should (18)________ a (19)____________ bucks on me.

Going once,
Going Twice,
Won't (20)__________ 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 (21)________ around.
- Don't (22)________ 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 (23)________ (24)__________ let you down.

So many ladies,
Are (25)______________ 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.
