[Intro]
Hey, one, two, you still don't know me
Hey, hey
[Verse 1]
Every page, I'll pick a picture as my preference, but just for reference
I like 'em all, number one through number twenty-seven
One question, who directed the photos and chose the layout?
How many accountants calculate the payout? How many?
I need a scientific calculator
I need a film camera with an adjustable aperture
I want a 3-piece stereo with a 5-disc carousel
That's sweeter than an apple dipped in peanuts and caramel
One time, I bought a bow and arrow
Before I figured out that Michael Jackson was the Scarecrow
My sisters both used to have braids and hair bows
The crib ain't never have no airflow
We never had a day of central AC
We always had a plate of rice and beans, I ate meat
My mother lives in the same house we been in since
I was a baby, I guess besides that year in Haiti
[Refrain]
Have you seen the catalogue?
It got so many things, I wish I had 'em all
And I would not feel sad at all
If I could buy everything in the catalogue
[Verse 2]
Yo, no returns, no exchanges
Finger through the pages, no paper cuts, self-addressed, stamped, got me amped
While the selection got me waiting for the shipping times, with less than Prime handling
Oversized dimensions, paid the extras for the weight and balance
Standing on the porch, lighting a torch up for the postman
Twice rung, at once too ho gung for the white van
Every card scam ran through the work scan led up to this
Every penny saved was a wish made for the brokest kids
Paid my dues and paid the price on page 23, column B
Double tape, auto reverse and volume rotary, dial tone
Don't bother calling me 'cause I ain't answering
When cords ain't long enough to reach while signing for my packages
Check the box for damage 'cause I need that mint conditioning
Soon enough, the whole damn block is listening
Until the next edition's in, I'm plotting my picks, planning my purchases
Cop the whole damn catalog, the merch is ill and worth the bill
[Refrain]
I thought I had it all
I thought I had it all
One, two, one, two
Then I got the catalog
One, two
[Verse 3]
Cellular beeper, phone receiver
I'll tell you a secret, don't repeat it
I need it, I didn't know I need it
It looks like a pump and feels like a sneaker
This crook smells like a skunk and steals like a tweaker
We kiss a little longer, Big Red under the bleachers
Got it made, got it made like I was hot for the teacher
It's a sound blaster card with the Altec Lansing speaker
I like David Lee Roth but not the other guy
It's 95-South, so I could learn to do the butterfly
It's triple fat goose stocked, even in the summertime
My sweatshirt County Seat with both words underlined
Yeah, in Mrs. Fields till the cookies stop
As quick as Mr. Owl licked the center of a Tootsie Pop
It's top floor, hold on to the railing
Watch my escalator zoom like it's Mode 7 scaling
With adjustable contrast and sharpness
I'm singing like a Partridge
We running a sale on shag carpet, hey
It's a sliding scale for financial hardships
'Cause odd shit, you want something broad, then go to Target
