Rapper Macklemore chose a non-trivial theme for his new song – he decided to write a track about buying cheap clothes. The track is titled Thrift Shop, and it was released as part of the singer’s debut album, The Heist. The song became a commercial success, and the Thrift Shop music video went viral, with over 26 million views on YouTube. Watch it now and hum along using the lyrics we have posted for you.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ft. Wanz – Thrift Shop Song Words
[Hook: Wanz]
I’m gonna pop some tags, only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I’m, I’m, I’m hunting, looking for a come up, this is f-cking awesome
[Verse One: Macklemore]
Walk into the club like what up? I got a big c-ck
Nah, I’m just pumped, I bought some sh-t from the thrift shop
Ice on the fringe is so damn frosty
The people like “Damn, that’s a cold ass honky”
Rolling in hella deep, headed to the mezzanine
Dressed in all pink except my gator shoes, those are green
Draped in a leopard mink, girl standing next to me
Probably shoulda washed this, smells like R.Kelly sheets, piss
But sh-t, it was 99 cents, buy it, cop it and washing it
‘Bout to go and get some compliments, passing up on those moccasins
Someone else has been walking in, bummy and grungy, f-cking it
I am stunting and flossing and saving my money and I’m hella happy
That’s a bargain b-tch, I’mma take your grandpa style
I’mma take your grandpa style, no for real, ask your grandpa
Can I have his hand-me-downs? Velour jumpsuit and some house slippers
Dookie Brown leather jacket that I found digging
They had a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard
Lyrics are provided by Geniusbeauty.com
I bought a skeet blanket, then I bought a knee board
Hello, hello, my ace man, my Miller
John Wayne ain’t got nothing on my fringe game, hell no
I could take some Pro Wings, make them cool, sell those
The sneaker heads would be like “Ah, he got the Velcros”
[Hook 2X]
[Verse Two: Macklemore]
What you know about rocking a wolf on your noggin?
What you knowing about wearing a fur fox skin?
I’m digging, I’m digging, I’m searching right through that luggage
One man’s trash, that’s another man’s come up
Thank your granddad for donating that plaid button up shirt
‘Cause right now, I’m up in here stunting
I’m at the Goodwill, you can find me in the bins
I’m that sucker, sucker searching in the section
Your grammy, your aunty, your momma, your mammy
I’ll take those flannel zebra jammies, second hand and I’ll rock that motherf-cker
They built a onsie with the socks on the motherf-cker
I hit the party and they stop in that motherf-cker
They be like “Oh that Gucci, that’s hella tight”
I’m like “Yo, that’s fifty dollars for a t-shirt”
Limited edition, let’s do some simple addition
Fifty dollars for a t-shirt, that’s just some ignorant b-tch sh-t
I call that getting swindled and pimped, sh-t
I call that getting tricked by business, that shirt’s hella dough
And having the same one as six other people in this club is a hella don’t
Peep game, come take a look through my telescope
Trying to get girls from a brand? Then you hella won’t, man you hella won’t
[Hook]
[Bridge: Wanz]
I wear your granddad’s clothes, I look incredible
I’m in this big ass coat from that thrift shop down the road
I wear your granddad’s clothes, I look incredible
I’m in this big ass coat from that thrift shop down the road
[Hook]
