[Macklemore:]

[Wanzz:]
I’m gonna pop some tags

I-I-I’m huntin’ lookin’ for a come-up
This is fucking awesome

[Macklemore:]
Now,
Walk into the club like what up I got a big cock
I’m so pumped I bought some shit from a thrift shop
Ice and the fringe are so damn frosty
The people like damn thats a cold ass honky
Rollin’ in hella deep headed to the mezzanine
Dressed in all pink ‘cept my gator shoes those are green draped in a leopard mink girls standin’ next to me
Probably shoulda washed this it smells like R. Kelly’s sheets
Pissssssssss
But shit it was 99 cents
If I get coppin’ it washin’ it
Bout to go and get some compliments passin’ off in those moccasins
Someone else has been walkin’ in but me and grungie fuck ’em in
I am stuffed in your closet and
Savin my money and I’m hella happy thats a bargain bitch
I’ma take your grandpa style, I’ma take your grandpa style
No for real, ask your grandpa can I have his hand-me-downs
Velour jumpsuit and some house slippers doukie brown leather jacket that I found diggin’
They had a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard
I bought a ski blanket, then I bought a kneeboard
Hello hello my ace man my mellow
John Wayne ain’t got nothin’ on my fringe game
Hello!
I can take some pro wings make ’em cool sell those
The sneaker heads will be like
Awww he got the velcro’s

[Wanz:]
I’m gonna pop some tags
Only got $20 in my pocket
I-I-I’m huntin’ lookin’ for a come-up
This is fucking awesome
I’m gonna pop some tags
Only got $20 in my pocket
I-I-I’m huntin’ lookin’ for a come-up
This is fucking awesome

[Macklemore:]
Whatcha know ’bout rockin’ the wolf on your noggin
Whatcha knowin’ about wearin’ a fur fox skin
I’m diggin’, I’m diggin’, I’m searchin’ right through that luggage
One man’s trash that’s another man’s come-up
Thank ya grand dad for donating that plaid button
Up shirt ’cause right now I’m up in her skirts
I’m at the Goodwill you can find me in the
I’m not I’m not I’m not searchin’ in that section
Your Grammy your Auntie your Momma your Mammy
I’ll take those flannel zebra jammies secondhand I rock that mothafucka
They built a onesie with the socks on the mothafucka
I hit the party and they stopped in that mothafucka
They be like oh! That Gucci that’s hella tight. I’m like Yo! thats $50 for a t-shirt
Limited edition let’s do some simple addition $50 for a t-shirt that’s just some ignorant bitch shit
I call that getting swindled and pitched shit
I call that getting tricked by a business
That shirts hella dope and that bliss same one on six other people in this club is a hella don’t
Eat game come take a look through my telescope
Tryna get girls with my brand man you hella won’t
Man you hella won’t
(Goodwill! Poppin’ tags! Yeah!)

[Wanz:]

This is fucking awesome
I’ll wear your grand dad’s clothes
I look incredible
I’m in this big ass coat from that thrift shop down the road
I’ll wear your grand dad’s clothes
I look incredible
I’m in this big ass coat from that thrift shop down the road

Only got $20 in my pocket
I-I-I’m huntin’ lookin’ for a come-up
This is fucking awesome

[Little Girl:]
