I´m gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I - I - I´m hunting, looking for a come-up
This is freaking awesome
[Verse 1:]
I Walk up to the club I´m like, "What up, I got a big rock!"
I´m so pumped about the stuff from the thrift shop
Ice on the fringe, it´s so damn frosty
people like, "whoa. He´s lookin real funky"
Rollin´ in the hella deep, headin´ 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
But, it was ninety-nine cents!
Coppin´ it, washin´ it, ´bout to go and get some compliments
Passin´ up on those moccasins someone else´s been walkin´ in
But me and grungy slammin it
I am stuntin´ and flossin´ and
Savin´ my money and that´s a bargain
I´ma take your grandpa´s style, I´ma take your grandpa´s 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 diggin´
They had a broken keyboard, so I bought a broken keyboard
I bought a sick blanket, then I bought a kneeboard
Hello, hello, my ace man, my Mello
John Wayne ain´t got nothing on my fringe game, I know
I could take some Pro Wings, make them cool, sell those
The sneaker heads would be like "Aw, he got the Velcros"
[Hook x2]
[Verse 2:]
What you know about rockin´ a wolf on your noggin?
What you knowin´ about wearin´ 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 statured
I´m at the Goodwill, you can find me in the (Uptons)
I´m not, I´m not sick of searchin´ in that section (Uptons)
Your grammy, your aunty, your momma, your mammy
I´ll take those flannel zebra jammies, second-hand, I rock that oh
The built-in onesie with the socks on it oh
I hit the party and they stop in that
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 [?]
I call that getting swindled and pimped
I call that getting tricked by a business
That shirt´s hella dough
And having the same one as six other people in this club that´s a hella don´t
Peep game, come take a look through my telescope
Trying to get girls from your brand? then you hella won´t
then you hella won´t

[Bridge: x2]
I´ll wear your granddad´s clothes
I´ll look incredible
I´m in this big coat
From that thrift shop down the road
