Thrift Shop

Lyrics

[Intro] "Hey Marklemore, can we go pet shopping?" Woof, woof, woof, woof Woof, woof, woof, woof Meow, meow, meow, meow Meowmeowmeow, meow Meow, meow, meow, meow Meowmeowmeow, meow [Chorus] I'm gonna pet some cats And I got Snausages in my pocket Lookin' for llama Or maybe an iguana This is a nice possum [Verse 1] Now Walk into the store, I'm like, "What up, I need a peacock!" Say "Yo Adrian" to the cashier at the pet shop Up in the front there's a newborn husky The people like, "Damn, that's a cute ass puppy" The managers annoyed with me, accuses me of loitering "Sir, you have to buy something", I just won the lottery Now I will fulfill my dream of a snake shopping spree But can I get a guarantee that they won't strangle me? (Hissssss) Shit, I'll just keep them in the bathroom I'll take a basket of ten cats and a casket for dead rats And a case of wee wee pads Cus I hate pickin' up scat A Cesar Millan backpack For my Rhodesian Ridgeback Where can I buy some diet mice? So my snakes don't get too fat I'ma take your Basset Hound, I'ma take your Chow Chows For real, I'll emancipate these furry bitches now I'll take some nasty-ass salmon treats for my ten kittens And since it's winter lemmie get 40 small mittens They had a neutered Beagle, I bought a neutered Beagle He's got an empty sack but he keeps on humpin' people My room was a pigsty, now it's a zoo I can't walk through without steppin' on some Shitzu I just bought blind dog, he might be deaf too The puppyheads will be like, "Aww, is he a rescue?" [Interlude] Yeah Well he's hella cute Hella so are you, do you live around here? Pet store, pettin' cats Get outta here, kid [Chorus] I'm gonna hoard some cats Got about 25 in my apartment Just like an awful Depressing commercial With Sarah McLaughlin [Bridge] This dog is old as shit He's got a plastic hip I taught him three new tricks Stay right there, play dead, and sit I'm Dr. Doolittle My place is full of bull This shark is really cool Can I store him in your pool? [Chorus] I better sell some pets They don't pay rent for this apartment They just sit around Lookin' for a hand out For this I blame Obama [Outro] "Is that your grandma's coat?" OK, whose kid is this?
