If I Had A $1000000 Lyrics
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you a house
(I would buy you a house)
If I had $1000000
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you furniture for your house
(Maybe a nice chesterfield or an ottoman)
If I had $1000000
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you a K-Car
(a nice Reliant automobile)
If I had $1000000 I'd buy your love.
I'd build a tree fort in our yard
If I had $1000000
You could help, it wouldn't be that hard
If I had $1000000
Maybe we could put a refrigerator in there
Wouldn't that be fabulous
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you a fur coat
(but not a real fur coat that's cruel)
If I had $1000000
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you an exotic pet
(Like a llama or an emu)
If I had $1000000
(if I had $1000000)
I'd buy you John Merrick's remains
(All them crazy elephant bones)
If I had $1000000 I'd buy your love.
We wouldn't have to walk to the store
If I had $1000000
We'd take a limousine 'cause it costs more.
If I had $1000000
We wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner
But we would. We'd actually make the treefort from the
first chorus out of it. Mmm.
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you a green dress
(but not a real green dress, that's cruel)
If I had $1000000
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you some art
(a Picasso or a Garfunkel)
If I had $1000000
(If I had $1000000)
I'd buy you a monkey
(haven't you always wanted a monkey?)
If I had $1000000, If I had $1000000
I'd be rich.
It's a terrific song and very playful as the other posters have said. It seemed a little "strange" at first to have a couple of guys go back and forth on this song, but that's what makes it so good.
Anyways, the band I'm in has worked this into our shows too. We figured if a couple of guys who are non-gay (ie. Steven and Ed) could get away with performing this, so could a couple of opposite-sex siblings. We'll even ad-lib some "sibling rivalry" jokes into it. All in good fun and taste, that is. Kinda like this song!
One time, my bro threw in "I'd buy you John Wilkes Booth's remains just to throw me off (I do the "response" vocals on this song).
A BNL classic. The original version (this one) is better than the one from Rock Spectacle, although, they are both cool. They just talk about prewrapped bacon in this one, and that makes it so much better.
Hahaha, Newfoundfinch, you're soooo fun-knee! Come on! please tell me you are not shallow enough to judge a group based on their image. They might not be super models, but they're not ugly. (check their keyboard player)
At least their songs don't contain swear words, disses to other artists, and are not about exactly the same thing (like, you know, love?)! ! ! ! !
Jerk. (Newfoundfinch) BNL is the BEST. They are hot, and I love them to death.

This song is a perfect example of the group's playfulness and witty lyrics. They're a great group of entertainers who don't seem to take too much seriously, the reason why we love them so.
does anyone know the words of this song in the beginning of the version on rock spectacle? i'm tuaght my best not to look like a miner niner? what is that??
Actually, they sing a verse from "this is me in grade " in the version just to taunt the audience. I heard they usually drag into the introduction of "if i had $1000000" for fun. (they play the tune but sing something else )
The lyrics are: I got a blue and white adidas bag I've got a blue-and-red Adidas bag and a humongous binder I'm trying my best not to look like a minor niner I went out for the football team to prove that I'm a man I guess I shouldn't tell them that I like Duran Duran
and to the hypocrite who expects beauty in musicians: listen to pop music or be quiet.
They are just regular guys with little fashion sense.
ShiverForMe...are you serious that you didn't know that we use dollars in canada? ..shame, shame what did you think we used?
Great song! Makes me happy!
