Fate's Basement Treasury (can stay in the basement)

Tonight I am up late,
But every night is the way.
My mind is gambling with fate.
Let’s see what he has to offer today.

"Have a glare at my wares!

My muscle bound tan surfer would like to take a ride,
In his vintage chevy with you sitting by his side.
Romancer, handsome, and a doctor with a college degree none-the-less,
Wants to share this night with you. Would you think it not best?

O wait but you have not seen what I can give!
Come! Look, you have a long life to live.

Would you not like to spend it with Robert the actor,
Or Phil the musician,
Or Tom the chiropractor?
I believe the best decision,
Would be on Micheal the physician.
And for a little fun there’s Jack the magician!

They all come free of charge.
This is a one time offer, don’t refuse!
The demand for my wares is very large.
It’s an offer you don’t want to lose!"

And every night I tell him the same.
Only one man has earned my glance.
I don’t think love is a game..
To earn points or gain fame.
What I have is special. I don’t wanna take a chance,
And lose him cause he knows my name,
Can tell me my thoughts and sparks the flame..
Inside of me. He makes me dance.
He tickles my tummy and talks of romance.

The girl you want to bargain with is not me.
I’ve chosen my man and he goes by _____.
