If I Had $1,000,000 (Adjusted for Inflation) - Barenaked Ladies [parody]

- This song was released in 1992, when a million dollars was a lot of money and Mark Zuckerberg hadn't even made it into high school yet. The world's landscape and economy has drastically changed since then, so I thought it might be a good idea to give this old classic a bit of a refresh, outlining what a million dollars could do by today's prices. And let me tell you, it's not anywhere near what it used to be. A million dollars today has the purchasing power of what roughly $448,000 would have back then - conversely a million 1992 dollars is worth almost 2.2 million today. Enjoy, and don't forget copyrights are a bxtch! :)
Well done all around. Nice vocals both in terms of quality and mimicking BNL's sound.
Now in 2024, I'd change the lyric from "not from Amazon" to "not from Temu".
Next time just sing if I had a ton of gold. Then the song can last forever!
Thanks, Joe!
So funny!
loved it! thanks for making it!
this is incredible. you deserve far more recognition, this should be viral
10/10!
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
Well I’d finance a house, that’s a good down payment on a house
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
I’d buy you furniture for your house
Maybe some nice folding chairs from IKEA
And if I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
I’d buy you a used car
Nissan Altimas are going for cheap
And if I had a million dollars,
I’d buy your love
If I had a million dollars
I’d try to find a house with a yard
If I had a million dollars
And go broke trying to find a good lawn mower
If I had a million dollars
Scratch and dent a smart fridge from a consignment shop somewhere
Whoa, you want the smart fridge? That’s WAY too much money.
Yeah, you’re probably right.
Mini fridge might be the way to go.
But the electricity!
Maybe we’ll just… keep our food in the garage then.
Ha, bold of you to assume we’d have food AND a garage.
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
Well I’d buy you a tank of gas
But not the premium, that’s cruel
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
Well I’d buy you a cat
We can’t afford to feed the cat
And if I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
Well I’d buy you toilet paper and eggs
Oh, now we’re really burning some cash
And if I had a million dollars,
I’d buy your love
If I had a million dollars
Maybe we could finally go to the store
If I had a million dollars
We could even Uber there ‘cause it costs more
If I had a million dollars
We wouldn’t have to eat Ramen Noodles for dinner
But we would eat Ramen Noodles.
Of course we would, have you seen the price of actual food lately?
We’d be broke instantly.
I can’t even imagine what it’d be like to get Ramen Noodles at a restaurant.
Does anyone even go out to eat anymore?
Jeff Bezos probably does.
Gross.
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
I’d buy you a green dress
But not from Amazon, that’s cruel
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
Well I’d buy you some art
NFT’s or some random girl’s OnlyFans
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
Well I’d buy you some groceries
Haven’t you always wanted some groceries?
And if I had a million dollars,
I’d buy your love
(Oh no)
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
If I had a million dollars
(If I had a million dollars)
If I had 448,000 dollars
I’d still be broke
So good. I feel bad for the less fortunate. I work 60-70hr weeks to make ends meet. I cant imagie trying to support a family of 3 on 50k.
Edit. 50k is what id be making on 40hrs a week. For context im a truck driver.
I feel you man. My wife and I both work 60-70hrs a week just to survive and put my daughter through college
Nicely done.
Your sound is beautiful sir
Thank you kindly!
