Lyrics

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 hippety-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 minelli 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 desperate 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 trendy new ben-hur 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'
At video bargainville..
