Lyrics
I've been sleeping in a cardboard box Spending every dollar at the liquor shop And even though I know I haven't got a lot I'll try to give you love until the day you drop I've been training like a Pavlov dog Let 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 lady in here I've been in like 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 gentlemen suffice? Any here? Any there? Any motions anywhere? 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 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 wanting for mates And the prospects are good but the date's never great Over here! Over there! Over where? Anywhere! They're too busy with winning the bidding to care And he's Sold
2004 Demo Lyrics
I’ve been sleeping in a cardboard box Spending every dollar at the liquor shop And even though I know I haven’t got a lot I’ll try to give you love until the day you drop I’ve been training like a household dog Working with the babies and the safety bike All you’ve gotta do is activate my cell And then I’m gonna fetch you anything you like Going once! Going twice! Every man here has a price! Over where? Over there! Sold to not a single woman in here! I’ve been in like a thousand times Dated every lady 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 disa- I graduated at the top I like to take advantage of the bourgeoisie So if you have a fantasy of being queen Maybe you should blow a couple bucks on me Going once! Going twice! Won’t these gentlemen suffice? Any here? Any there? Any motions anywhere? Going twice! Going thrice! Guess this means we’ll go four times a lady I promise I’ll be all you need, ever need You’ll never have to shop around (don’t shop around) And I’ll give you all you 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
