Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGHI BJGB HBJG

There is something terribleA
about a hurdy gurdyB
a gipsy man and womanC
and a monkey in red flannelA
all stopping in front of a big houseD
with a sign For Rent on the doorE
and the blinds hanging looseF
and nobody homeG
I never saw thisH
I hope to God I never willI
