What's Not on Craigs List ... is on eBay
Project studio demo
Story behind the song
Paybacks are priceless...for everything else there's MasterCard...
Lyrics
What's Not On Craigs List...Is On eBay
Guess I should have known since me and Alice met
On redneck love dot com on the Internet
That if and when we ever split
The Web would play a part in it
I broke up with Alice on a Friday night
Come Sunday morning she'd changed her locks with all my stuff inside
She said:
(C1)
"You can get all your sh-tuff back today
I was just kiddin about throwin it all away
Old comic books, Dark Vader hat
That six-string signed by Lester Flatt
Everything you love's a click away:
What's not on Craigs List ... is on eBay"
I hung up and went online and I'll be cussed!
The whole wide world was placin bids on all my stuff
What really made me flip my lid
Was I kept getting overbid
Someone off in Scotland named Ma_Morag
Just bid thirteen dollars on my red Go Dawgs! beanbag
Now I am
(C2)
Tryin to get all my sh-tuff back today
She was just kiddin about throwin it all away
Beer can collection, kung fu flicks
That big Fathead of UGA VI
Everything I love's a click away:
What's not on Craigs List ... is on eBay"
Bank account was going down by afternoon
Not a single auction even ending soon
I sat there and cussed my luck
The Buy It Now price was a thousand bucks
Came a flash of red-and-gold before my eyes
Alice left her MasterCard on our last pizza night
So let me tell you what I did:
I went in, found that card
Between the Pizza King box and cookie jar
I clicked Buy It Now and ransomed all my things
Went to Bass Pro dot com and did some Christmas shopping
(C3)
I just wanted to call you up to say
Thanks for quick shippin, got the last of my stuff today
Lava lamp, Best of James Dean
Vid'ya games and karaoke machine
I left you positive feedback on eBay
and dropped your MasterCard in the mail today
