About This Song
About "If I Had $1,000,000" by Barenaked Ladies
A cheeky acoustic daydream where a million dollars buys a tree fort and a pre-worn k.d. lang cassette, not a yacht. Barenaked Ladies trade earnest longing for deadpan wit, the jaunty strum masking a gentle shrug at materialism's absurdity. Calm whimsy collides with the unease of never quite growing up.
