Video Bargainville Songtext

von Moxy Fruvous

(We can take a trip up to the corner, corner,
Corner, it's not too far...ok.)

I have a college pal who says we can pay one price for two,
Just ask for Roger, at Video Bargainville...

We can take a trip up to the corner, it's not too far, especially in the car, there's a friendly store with nice decor and lots of posters on the door
Once past the counter and the newsstand with a free bag of popcorn in your hand, you're ready for the world, no, not the band, but a fine selection in video, land.
Don't be too confused by the little reviews on the back of the box, just pick up the boxes, all the boxes you can use. The hippity-hoppest videos in the land, maybe something foreign, maybe something panned, uh, maybe something formerly banned.
Perhaps it's something you can watch with friends or something that inevitably lends itself to shapely curves and bends of exploited women and their friends.
Perhaps it's 'New York, New York' with Liza Minelli and Mickey Rourke, no that's not right, it was, Robert De Niro, everyone's favorite video...hero.

I have a college pal who, says we can pay one price for two,
Just ask for Roger, at Video Bargainville.

So contrary to the patient sign, most patrons always Please Rewind but the clerks don't mind they're very kind, the only stickler has resigned.
There's a courteous smoking section in the back, behind the bulging exercise video rack, and if you're tired, you can hit the sack, with the new Ben-Hur, trendy, disco double-pack.

I have a college pal who says we can pay one price for two,
Just ask for Roger, at Video Bargaingville.

...once we had a friend
Was too extravagant
Was not a Bargainville fan
Pissed off the video man

And soon there will be program-your-own TV so they ask you to heed this final plea, before it's all dead, you should rent more, and enjoy video bargains, galore.

I have a college pal who says we can pay one price for two,
Just ask for Roger, at Video Bargainville.
