Heard this Weird Al Yankovic song on the radio about Ebay and my husband found the lyrics... thought I'd share! LOL It's to the tune of NSync's "I want it that way"

"Yeah
A used...pink bathrobe
A rare...mint snow globe
A Smurf...TV tray
I bought on eBay
My house...is filled with this crap
Shows up in bubble wrap
Most every day
What I bought on eBay

Tell me why (I need another pet rock)
Tell me why (I got that Alf alarm clock)
Tell me why (I bid on Shatner's old toupee)
They had it on eBay

I'll buy...your knick-knack
Just check...my feedback
"A++!" they all say
They love me on eBay

Gonna buy (a slightly damaged golf bag)
Gonna buy (some Beanie Babies, new with tag)
(From some guy) I've never met in Norway
Found him on eBay

I am the type who is liable to snipe you
With two seconds left to go, whoa
Got Paypal or Visa, whatever'll please ya
As long as I've got the dough
I'll buy...your tchotchkes
Sell me..your watch, please
I'll buy (I'll buy, I'll buy, I'll buy...)
I'm highest bidder now

(Junk keeps arriving in the mail)
(From that worldwide garage sail)
(Hey! A Dukes of Hazzard ashtray)
Oh yeah...(I bought it on eBay)
Wanna buy (a PacMan Fever lunchbox)
Wanna buy (a case of vintage tube socks)
(Wanna buy a Kleenex used by Dr. Dre)
(Found it on eBay)
Wanna buy (that Farrah Fawcett poster)
(Pez dispensers and a toaster)
(Don't know why...The kind of stuff you'd throw away)
(I'll buy on eBay)
What I bought on eBay"


from Weird Al's website : http://www.weirdal.com/

ive heard better, i like Al's song "Constipated", now although many artists did some version of constipatd, Wierd Al's was the best.

Does N'Sync have a song like that? I know it's Backstreet Boys...

(Okay I am gonna go now... hehehe)

You can even buy ghost's on e-bay now. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Cloudy thakns for that! You can't even begin to imagine what a laugh this has been. I only buy Final Fantasy stuff from ebay and this literally had me in tears. I'm not an ebay nut but when you deal with it for long enough you get to meet a lot of them and this song says it all!

That song is great! Especially when you start singing along to whoever wrote it (wasn't it westlife or boyzone or something)

Some crap anyways, but yeh, rock on :D

LOL, it could be Backstreet boys Bahamut... I don't know, but I've heard the song.. [img]graemlins/laugh2.gif[/img] and this version cracks me up! Especially after all the posts about 'cheese sandwich' and cereal sales and now the ghost? LOL :rolleyes:

You can listen to it here...

Have it on CD, not one of his best but still amusing [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yea I have that CD Somewhere. My favourite Weird Al Song is 'Frank's 2000 Inch TV'. Not a parody, actually one of his own.

But...

'LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LASAGNE!'
