If I had a million dollars - Barenaked Girls

Okay, when times are tough, peoople think about alcohol, smoke and lottery. Right now, both alocohol and smoke are not affordable, people would go for lottery. It is true that the chance of winning lottery is about 1 in 14 million. (about the population of Shanghai) The best part about buying the lottery is the first 15 min after you bought the ticket, you think about what you can do with that money. Going on a trip, quitting your job, buying a fancy car/house/diamond...

There is a great song by a Canadian Band, Barenaked Girls. (no... they are all dudes), "If I had a million dollars", of course, a million dollar won't get you very far, you probably won't be able to buy a house (in Whitehorse maybe), and of course it won't be able to buy love. It is still a very cute song.

My favourite part is "If I had a 1,000,000 We wouldnt have to eat Kraft dinner...", in one version of the song, they added "But we would eat Kraft Dinner. Of course we would, we'd just eat more. And buy really expensive ketchups with it. That's right, all the fanciest Dijon ketchups! Mmm. Mmm-hmm."
