Video Bargainville

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 decore, and lots of posters on the door
Once past the counter and the news stand, 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
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 Minnelli and Mickey Rourke
No, that’s not right
It was Robert DeNiro, 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 desparate sign
Most patrons always «please rewind!»
And 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
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 Bargainville
Once we had a friend
Was too extravagant
Was not a Bargainville fan
Pissed off the video man!
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
