Planet for Sale

One day George the Genius had an idea
for an auction at Ebay™, his best of the year.
O how he loved to play such a trick:
Still laughing he typed it and added a pic.

Planet for sale, planet for sale
a little defective, but still almost hale
with plants and with creatures, for care and repair
or to strip down and share!


As every year, a spaceship came by
with an alien family cruising the sky.
The parents enjoying the earth's crystal sights
With their kids roaming the web plantet-wide.

Planet for sale, planet for sale
a little defective, but still almost hale
with plants and with creatures, for care and repair
or to strip down and share!


»O Mommy, o Dad, have a look at this site!
For just one dollar they'll sell it, they write.«
»Oh, this is amazing!« their mom said, surprised.
»Come on, dear, let's buy it, it's really well priced!«

So they bid and they purchased our earth for this price.
George thought it funny, for he was not wise.
He wrote them »It's yours now, so go have some fun!«
and thought about next selling the sun.

Star for sale, star for sale
a little defective, but still almost hale
with moons and with planets, for care and repair
or to strip down and share!


So if one day there's a knock at your door
and an alien asks for your house and some more:
For your cat, and your kid, and for you, it's no game
and you'll know it is Ebay™ who is to blame.

Planet for sale, planet for sale
a little defective, but still almost hale
with plants and with creatures, for care and repair
or to strip down and share!
