Where did you buy this?
From a yard sale held by a guy next door?
What did you say to me? I don't believe it!
You bought it from some darn outdoor swap meet
Those crap went way out of hand
And you've collected them in the garage
Weak stuff at weak prices
No easy way to say this
I mean it, but don't make this hard on me

I don't wanna go to a thrift store
'cause you asked for it
What do you want?... or need?
I'm not gonna shop at a thrift store
'cause you tell me you've wanted that or this
If you're on your way
To where recent bargains had stayed
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to go to a thrift store today

There are crappy things
Like cheap sunglasses and homemade shirts
And my heavy heart sinks deep down because of you
Your heap of junk that's mostly stunk
I'd rather set up a yard sale
Goodbye to worthless toys
That you've stocked but don't need
It seems our top floor might fall
But then you're convincing me what else now

I won't look around at a thrift store
'cause you asked for it
But what do you... just need?
I'm not gonna buy what's in a thrift store
'cause you tell me it's quite a good time to
Save money this way
Your wallet's full but you're okay
If all you have is leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to shop at a thrift store today

Promise me to throw some things away
Like useless Mad Magazines and 8-tracks
And too many empty toilet paper rolls
I tried to say

So you're going a thrift store
'cause you asked for it
Was there something... you'd see
That had caught your eye in a thrift store
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
Is that why you go to a thrift store
'cause you asked for it
Something you want... or need
Who cares if you go to a thrift store?
There were just darn bargains like that or this
If you're on your way
To where the junkies had quite stayed
If you want to sell my Wii crap
I rather take a midday nap
But I'll drive you there even when I believed that
There's a reason to go to a thrift store today
