LYRICS
million dollars that’s a lotta money what is it good for maybe it could make a difference maybe change the course of history or become a monumental failure we’ve got a real problem ‘round here how we gonna solve it? well frank here just had a brilliant idea spend a million bucks on rocks solely to keep people from sleeping out of the rain under the freeway what a perverse thought what an abstract way to express your disdain a million in rocks to eliminate negative space they sure are keeping portland weird these days those rocks were really big we should have dropped them on your head whatever spills out split evenly between the other rats are you proud to see them in action? when you drive on by no one staying dry does it make you feel good? does it make you feel like a million bucks?
