0:09My life is likened to a bargain store
0:14I may have just what you're looking for
0:20If you don't mind the fact, that all the merchandise is used
0:25But with a little mending, it could be as good as new
0:31Why you take for instance, this old broken heart
0:36If you will just replace the missing part
0:41You would be surprised to find how good it really is
0:46Take it and you never will be sorry that you did
0:52The bargain store is open come inside (the bargain store is open come inside)
0:57You can easily afford the price (the bargain store is open come inside)

1:07And I can guarantee you'll be completely satisfied (the bargain store is open come inside)
1:14♪
1:24Take these old used memories from the past
1:28And these broken dreams and plans that didn't last
1:33I'll trade them for a future, I can't use them anymore
1:38I've wasted love, but I still have some more
1:43The bargain store is open, come inside
1:48You can easily afford the price
