A/N- Hey, all! theeShadyLady here, this is a parody of "Thrift Shop" sung by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (which obviously you know because of my very convincing summary that made you click this here story). I was listening to this song and for some reason I thought of doing a Hunger Games version and since the idea stuck in my head, I wrote it and here it is. I hope you love it.
((DISCLAIMER: I do not own The Hunger Games and I do not own "Thrift Shop".))
GALE:
Hey Catnip, are you ready to go hunting?
KATNISS:
Hunt Hunt Hunt Hunt
Hunt Hunt Hunt Hunt
Hunt Hunt Hunt Hunt
KATNISS:
I'm gonna pop some squirrels
Only got six arrows in my quiver
I-I-I'm huntin'
Looking for a good one
Need to feed my family.
I walk up to the Hob like
"What up a made a clean shot"
I'm so pumped up about this rabbit from the woods
Shot in the eye, I'm so dang lucky.
The people like "Shoot
That's a real good hunter."
Rollin' in District Twelve
Headin' out to the dark trees,
Not dressed in pink
Gotta blend in so I'm wearin' green
Maybe gonna catch a mink
Gale's standin' next to me
Boy, you gotta watch this
Got arrows rainin' down
I'm shootin' anything that moves
Huntin' 'em, trappin' 'em
'bout to go and get some money now
Passin' by the bakery
That's where bread boy is
But me and Gale ain't stoppin' in
I am shootin' and killin' and earning' my money
And when I see squirrel climbin'
I go, you don't shoot that, I will
Boy, you know I will
No really- you gonna shoot that- yeah I knew you wouldn't.
Spend all my time out in the woods
Wearin' dad's leather boots that I found for huntin'
Dad taught me how to hunt
I taught Gale to hunt
He taught me to trap
Then I tried to teach Prim
Oh no, Oh no, that ain't gonna happen
Primerose was always scarin' away my game
Oh no, I couldn't even get a shot off
She'd cry and yell at 'em.
Now Gale comes up like
"Aw, I coulda shot that"
I'm gonna pop some squirrels
Only got six arrows in my quiver
I-I-I'm huntin'
Looking for a good one
Need to feed my family.
I'm gonna pop some squirrels
Only got six arrows in my quiver
I-I-I'm huntin'
Looking for a good one
Need to feed my family.
What you know about shootin' a squirrel in the noggin?
What you know about watchin your family starvin'?
I'm treadin', I'm treadin', I'm treadin' right through the deep woods
One man's danger, that's another girl's refuge.
Thank you Effie for reaping my little Primrose
'Cause right now she scared than anythin'
I'm in front of the crowd volunteering for the Games
I'm not, I'm not going to let her die there
She's screamin', she's cryin', I'm dyin', I'm leavin'
She makes me promise I'll try to stay alive for her
I get that mockingjay pin
The one I gave her for good luck today
I hit the arena and they all want to kill me
They be like, "Oh, lover boy, where Katniss at"
I'm like, "Oh- he will never tell you that"
Seventy-fourth edition, let's do some simple addition
Twenty four tributes, only one comes out
I call that punishment by a government
The Capitol calls that entertainment
I gotta do it though
I'm gonna win this for my family, I got to get back home
This game took control of my life you know
Tryin' to win this game
Yeah, with Peeta's help
Yeah, with Peeta's help
Star-crossed lovers gotta win.
I'm gonna pop some tributes
Only got six arrows in my quiver
I-I-I'm huntin'
Looking for a bad one
Need to feed my family.
I wear a big, fake smile
I look so in love.
I'm in this cold rock cave
With Peeta, we're all alone.
I wear a big, fake smile
I look so in love.
I'm in this cold rock cave
With Peeta, we're all alone.
I'm gonna pop some tributes
Only got six arrows in my quiver
I-I-I'm huntin'
Looking for a bad one
Need to feed my family.
GALE:
Are you coming home yet?

A/N- For all of you that are screaming in your mind "Seriously?! Seriously? You used the movie version of Katniss receiving the mockingjay pin from Prim!? Everybody knows the book version with Madge is the best version!" I am telling you all now that I only used this version because it fits better in this storyline.
