You go out to the bar after you get paid
|
You see the little surfer girl with eyes of jade
|
Then you see a foxy lady standin' by her side
|
Pick up the blond to have some fun you do decide
|
|
You go out to the parking lot -- you find your keys
|
You get in your auto and you aim to please
|
But the lover of your choosin' is a chilly shade
|
A trick, a tick, a silly duck
|
But, you have made --
|
|
A SELECTION
|
A SEL-E-E-E-E-CTION
|
A SELECTION
|
A SEL-E-E-E-E-CTION
|
|
You get on the commercial for the t.v. tube
|
Bob Barker asks you which vehicle you would choose
|
You want the Cadillac or BMW
|
And you say O-O-O-O-O-O-OKAY!!
|
|
You go out on a date with your fiancee
|
The pretty little lady with the eyes of gray
|
You go to the bathroom to brush your teeth
|
WHAT! NO TOOTHPASTE?!?
|
|
[Repeat chorus]
|
|
You have to go to New york on a business trip
|
On train, a plane, a car, or ocean ship
|
Or you become a rock star and your mind will flip
|
A choice of psychedelic drugs or groovy chicks
|
You buy a pack of bubblegum from the store
|
With two, or three, or four, or five pieces or more
|
You take out the last piece to put in your mouth
|
But you select the first piece
|
Yes, you have made a selection
|
|
[Repeat chorus]
|
