1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 now you know what i love about going on-line
is just staying on there all of the time
but the thing I love best about every single day
is looking at the stuff on the old e-bay
but the best thing I reckon an’ the best thing to me
is everything starts off at ninety nine p
on e-bay

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 wooden rattles goods chattles old Chelsea scarves
mint condition programmes that are signed by the stars
Wembley seats sticky sweets I tell-ya what it can’t be beat
check it out it’s such a treat on old -e-bay

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 pet rocks alarm clocks a badge of Cisse
I tell you what they got the lot on old e-bay
knick-knacks feedback check it out or money back
i’m bidding on a plastic mac that Jose gave away
but I know its genuine it’s’ totally authentic
its got a note from Kenyon to the bloke what sent it
John Terry’s underpants a plate from one of Zola’s aunts
everything’s the business on the old ebay

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 an’ I’ll bid anything ,anything at all
i’d go to fifty for an old football
a Football Focus sofa an FA Cup ashtray
its like goin’ ta heaven on the old e-bay
a Glen Hoddle t-shirt an Arsene Wenger poster
an Art Deco pair of shorts a Notts Forest toaster
Bob Marley’s football boots a Roy-The-Rovers tie
things get worth more when some people die
on e-bay

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 but that’s what it’s like right livin’ in Stroud
there ain’t many shops here there ain’t much around
an’ call me a hippy poet call me a punk
but i’ve got so much incredible junk
my shed’s filling up now with so much crap
and all of it arrives here in nice bubble wrap
it’s so much posher than a car boot sale
no wonder they’re laughin’ down at Royal Mail
and when they tell me I’m the current highest bidder
I stick to the item an’ I don’t reconsider
I don’t give up now an’ i always fight’em
even though its just some really crap item
on e-bay

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 so right guys listen up – check it out today
