If I had $1000000
        (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.

If I had $1000000
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
        (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.

If I had $1000000
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
        (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
If I had $1000000, If I had $1000000
I'd be rich.
