You don't know what you want until you see it on sale

Raise your hand if you think this is not true... no one will believe you.

You don't know what you want until you see it on sale.
You don't know what you want until you see it marked down.
You don't really know what you want until you see it discounted.
You don't actually know what you want until you see its markdown.

You innocently walk into the store,
you just wanted to take a look, walk around...
hang out a bit, avoid the heat from outside,
enjoy looking at things...
but then, there it is, gorgeous, attractive,
telling you "buy me" and "I'm cheaper than ever",
also "you deserve me, you love me"...
and there you are...
pulling out your credit card
because you know it's true,
you love it, and you can't help it.

It's mutual love,
at least until you get home and hang it up
among the things you never wear or use.
You don't know what you want
until you see it marked down.
