My Bizarre Neighbour

he’s eccentric and bizarre
love my neighbour but only from afar
since he keeps all his doors ajar
I saw he keeps his glass eye in a jar
when in the morning he revs up his car
he pretends to be going to a seminar
he’s convinced he is a rising star
walks around in his peignoir
in his mouth a footlong cigar
and in one hand a european guitar
once he offered me some caviar
then walked away without an aurevoir!

I've had some bizarre next door neighbors in my day! Thanks for the amusing reminder that they are now somebody else's problem. Fun ~ John
