The Bidding by Tally Hall

I've (1)________ (2)________________ in a (3)__________________ box,
Spending (4)__________ (5)____________ at the liquor shop,
And even (6)____________ I (7)________ I haven't got a lot
I try to (8)________ you love (9)__________ 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 (10)________________ my bell,
And I'll fetch you (11)________________ you like

Going once,
Going twice,
Every man here has a price.
Over where,
Over there,
Sold to not a (12)____________ (13)________ in here

I've been here like a thousand times,
Dated every woman in the atmosphere.
I've (14)________ to every continent,
Broken all the hearts in every hemisphere,
And if I'm not the (15)________ of guy you like to circumvent,
Just remember not to (16)________ 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 (17)__________ 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 (18)________ (19)__________ a lady,

I (20)______________ 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 (23)________ never let you down,
Let you down,
Don't worry; I will (24)__________ let you down.

So many ladies,
Are hunting for mates,
And the prospect are good,
But the date's (25)__________ great.
Over here,
Over there,
Over where,
Anywhere.
They're too busy,
For winning,
The bidding,
To get any sold.
