Call me old-fashioned
But why are your jeans torn?
I'd expect a hefty discount
Before they've even been worn!
Yet you pay a little extra
Just because they look nice
Not that I'd ever wear jeans
For whatever was your price.
You can keep your Wranglers & Levi's
I'm not a labels man
I'm a bog-standard 'fashionista'
Proud to be a Primark man.
They might not be as good quality
But if they're ripped I'm the one to blame
I'll simply pop back to Primark
And shell out for the same again.
You might call it a false economy
And think I am a fool
But my jeans cost the same as your fancy craft beer
So who's the fucking tool?
