Lyrics

If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you a house (I would buy you a house)
If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you furniture for your house
(Maybe a nice chesterfield or an ottoman)
If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you a K-Car (a nice Reliant automobile)
If I Had a million dollars I’d buy your love.

If I Had a million dollars
I’d build a tree fort in our yard.
If I Had a million dollars
You could help, it wouldn’t be that hard.
If I Had a million dollars
Maybe we could put put a little tiny fridge in there somewhere
([Talking:] We could just go up there and hang out.
Like open the fridge and stuff, and there’d be foods laid out for us
With little pre-wrapped sausages and things. Mmmmm.
They have pre-wrapped sausages but they don’t have pre-wrapped bacon.
Well can you blame them. Yeah)

If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you a fur coat (but not a real fur coat that’s cruel)
If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you an exotic pet (Like a llama or an emu)
If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you John Merrick’s remains (All them crazy elephant bones)
If I Had a million dollars I’d buy your love

If I Had a million dollars
We wouldn’t have to walk to the store
If I Had a million dollars
We’d take a limousine ’cause it costs more
If I Had a million dollars
We wouldn’t have to eat Kraft Dinner.
(But we would eat Kraft Dinner. Of course we would, we’d just eat more.
And buy really expensive ketchup with it.
That’s right, all the fanciest Dijon Ketchup. Mmmmmm.)

If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you a green dress (but not a real green dress, that’s cruel)
If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you some art (a Picasso or a Garfunkel)
If I Had a million dollars  
I’d buy you a monkey (haven’t you always wanted a monkey?)
If I Had a million dollars I’d buy your love

If I Had a million dollars, If I Had a million dollars
If I Had a million dollars, If I Had a million dollars
I’d be rich.
