Let's bid (on ebay)!

Come one come all
It's better than a shopping mall
No people, no traffic
So therefore less hectic

What are you looking for?
Clothes, antiques, or a special fishing lure?
No need to worry
Ebay, the place to hurry

Point and click to place my bid
Oh no! I have been outbid!
Search and search and search some more
What will I find that I am looking for?

Will I buy my pet a bed?
Or get drawn in by a hat for my head?
And the final hour has come
What will be the final sum?

My winning bid does include a pet's bed
But no hat for my head!
