The Lyrics
Christmas fever will be starting soon after the summer! A little ditty to help you with some bargain-hunting!
eBay sells eBay sells
Selling like a punk
O how cool it is to bid
on another person's junk
Oh eBay sells eBay sells
Selling lets of fuff
O how sad it is to bid
on another person's stuff
Bidding on a coat
From a moth-eaten wardrobe
Trying for a boat
That is full of holes!
CDs on the cheap
Making profits high
Oh how dumb it is to bid
A crappy buy tonight!
eBay sells eBay sells
Selling like a punk
O how cool it is to bid
on another person's junk
Oh eBay sells eBay sells
Selling lets of fuff
O how sad it is to bid
on another person's stuff!
Selling like a punk
O how cool it is to bid
on another person's junk
Oh eBay sells eBay sells
Selling lets of fuff
O how sad it is to bid
on another person's stuff
Bidding on a coat
From a moth-eaten wardrobe
Trying for a boat
That is full of holes!
CDs on the cheap
Making profits high
Oh how dumb it is to bid
A crappy buy tonight!
eBay sells eBay sells
Selling like a punk
O how cool it is to bid
on another person's junk
Oh eBay sells eBay sells
Selling lets of fuff
O how sad it is to bid
on another person's stuff!

Been there..done that eBay...could never win a bid...great job on this parody..
I buy your sentiments. Bid is 555.
Thanks AFW and John!
Short but sweet...
I sang
Good start (Bidding on a coat/From a moth-eaten wardrobe) ...but I didn't feel quite as strong for the rest. Still, good idea and decently executed: 544
Thanks to all 3 of the latest commenters.
Phil Alexander: This was inspired by the start of the Christmas Fever that normally begins in September, and I thought the OS would be a good choice.
Ann H: Thank you. Sorry about our little disagreement.
Jon S. Thank You! Im glad you are giving good comments on my parodies again. For some reason your comment on that parody of mine you really hate makes me chuckle now!.

Clever title switch and a good sentiment. Will sell you these barely-used Fives at a nice discount, and with a free tip: With more experience, folks here will expect you to use your massive parody super-powers to vary the choruses, instead of repeating them (even though the OS repeats). Think of it as a chance to display your creativity! 555 on this one, since you probably didn't know that.
lovely rhythm Jason, although "selling like a punk"??? - great idea too, and as Phil said short and sweet - 555
Thank you TT and Stuart!
Some really good bits in here, Jase...although some of the lines felt a bit throwaway ("selling like a punk"). Overall, strong work. 555
Thanks Kristof!
I sang along with the song! My dad always in the one on Ebay, he get's a ton of stuff for me on it. You're right though, sometimes I get soemthing that doesn't completely work. BOO, but that was a good song!
