[Parody] of Macklemore's Thrift Shop - Rich Snob


This catchy song was overplayed in 2013, and so naturally it was ripe for parodying. This is my attempt:
The Original Lyrics - Click to play Youtube - Macklemore's Thrift Shop 
Lyrics
What, what, what, what... [x7]
Bada, badada, badada, bada... [x9]

[Hook:]
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 fucking awesome

What, what, what, what... [x7]
Bada, badada, badada, bada... [x9]

[Hook:]
I’ve got so much cash
I can’t even close my wallet
I - I - I’m crying, in my Ferrari
First world fucking problems
[Verse 1:]
Nah, Walk up to the club like, "What up, I got a big cock!"
I'm so pumped about some shit from the thrift shop
Ice on the fringe, it's so damn frosty
That people like, "Damn! That's a cold ass honkey."
Rollin' in, 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, smells like R. Kelly's sheets
(Piiisssssss)
But shit, it was ninety-nine cents! (Bag it)
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 fuckin it man
I am stuntin' and flossin' and
Savin' my money and I'm hella happy that's a bargain, bitch
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? (Thank you)
Velour jumpsuit and some house slippers
Dookie brown leather jacket that I found diggin'
They had a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard
I bought a skeet blanket, then I bought a kneeboard
Hello, hello, my ace man, my Mello
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 "Aw, he got the Velcros"

[Verse 1:]
My, oceanfront view is, blocked up, by my big yacht!
I’ve got a Phd, but no one calls me “Doc”,
Lag on my fridge, nutella jar empty
Overslept, Damn! The bed’s too comfy
Carryin’, only greens, can’t use the vending machine
My fav band stinks, cause now they are too  mainstream
Look like I've a small dick, due to skinny jeans
Overslept so I missed,  Macca’s brekkie treats
(Pissed)
Asians, not getting 100%! (Racist)
Tastin’ it, wastin’ it, food lacked enough condiments
Racin’ to the cookies tastin’, but they turn out to be raisin
Coffee so well insulated and
I can’t use it to warm my hands
Broke a nail after getting a manicure, bitch

Shops have too many aisles, Shops have too many aisles,

Got a cheque, so now have to go to the bank in town (Damn you)
Promo expired on my free Snickers

Not enough dip for my chicken nuggets
Had to re-tie my right shoe, now feels tighter than my left shoe
Too hungry to sleep, but too tired to make food
2 pillows’ too high, 1 pillow's too low,
Medium pizza would feed me, but large is better food to money ratio.

My iPhone’s broken, have to listen to radio

Nothing to wear, but my closet's full of clothes

[Hook]
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 fucking awesome
[Hook]
At home there’s a wet patch
but I step in it with my sock and
I - I - I’m crying, in my mansion
First world fucking problems

[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 stuntin'
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 motherfucker
The built-in onesie with the socks on that motherfucker
I hit the party and they stop in that motherfucker
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 bitch (shit)
I call that getting swindled and pimped (shit)
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 is a hella don't
Peep game, come take a look through my telescope
Trying to get girls from a brand? Man you hella won't
Man you hella won't
(Goodwill... poppin' tags... yeah!)
[Verse 2]
Have to reset my log-in, cause I have forgotten

The net’s so boring, so I’m surfing Firefox and
I’m wanking, with Olay, my penis looks half my age.


My hand's too fat, to fit into Pringles make me rage
Hate how pirated music comes with no album artwork
GPS glitched, so I have no direction
Without batts, my book don’t even function
Glasses so clean I see my eye’s own reflection

Snapchattin’, Hashtaggin’, but should be, exam crammin’
Lift not working, its jammin, and, so took the elevator
Ordered a tall no fat white hot choc, got a mocha later
Finger ripped through my ultra soft toilet paper
Phones have ruined, surprise water balloon fights
I’m like, “I ate too much, my tummy hurts”

Autocorrection, ruining my street diction
I do not have enough salsa -  for my dorito chips (shit)
but don't have the chips to open a new jar (dip) 
I didn't get what I want for Christmas
First class is shocker
There’s too much space to reach the touchscreen monitor
I took a dump but then I forgot my smartphone

Diamond earrings in my Vuitton bag, damn scratched my iPhone,
Damn I lost my pony
(High tax, earnin’ cash...yeah!)

[Hook]
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 fucking awesome
[Hook]
I wish I was a fag
I have issues with commitment,
I - I - I’m wishing, marriage was illegal
First world fucking problems

[Bridge]
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
[Bridge]
Free wifi is too slow
I’m too beautiful
No one takes me seriously though
Broke the shell of my taco

Toothbrush batts are too low
Someone left voicemail
My boat just got towed
I’m that rich snob down the road

[Hook]
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 fucking awesome


Is that your grandma's coat?
[Hook]
I’ve got so much cash
I can’t even close my wallet
I - I - I’m crying, bent my golf club
First world fucking problems

Damn I have to go outside and vote?
