Bear and Grin It

My friends are renting someone's house So everything that's in it Was chosen for another's taste And they must bear and grin it. The furniture, the linens, Every knickknack placed inside Can't be altered, touched or moved at all By neither hair nor hide. It must be strange to realize That these strangers, as they cook, Will have access to your kitchen - Every cranny, every nook. When owners rent, they must decide To just say, "What the heck!" Accepting that they won't be at Their renters' call and beck.
