The Bidding by Tally Hall

I've (1)________ sleeping in a cardboard box,
Spending (2)__________ 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 (3)________ (4)________________ (5)________ a Pavlov dog,
Sent my independence out to take a hike.
All you got to do is activate my bell,
And I'll (6)__________ 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 been (8)________ like a thousand times,
Dated every woman in the atmosphere.
I've been to (9)__________ 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 (10)________ me (11)________ I disappear

I graduated at the top,
I like to (12)________ advantage of the bourgeoisie,
So if you have a fantasy of being a queen,
Maybe you should (13)________ a couple bucks on me.

Going once,
Going Twice,
Won't these gentlemen suffice?
Any here,
Any there,
Any (14)______________ any where.

Going twice,
Going thrice,
Guess this means we'll go (15)________ (16)__________ a lady,

I (17)______________ I'll be all you'll need,
Ever need,
You'll (18)__________ have to shop around.
- Don't shop around.
And I'll give you all you'll (19)________ need,
Ever need.
Don't worry; I will never let you down,
Let you down,
Don't worry; I (20)________ never let you down.

So (21)________ ladies,
Are (22)______________ for mates,
And the prospect are good,
But the date's (23)__________ great.
Over here,
Over there,
Over where,
Anywhere.
They're too busy,
For winning,
The bidding,
To get any sold.
