Million Bucks
All Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody says they want a million bucks
But I'd rather have a million days with you
My account doesn't go that high
It doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to me

I can't promise you a million bucks
But I can promise I'll be good to you
Everybody wants a million bucks
But I'd rather have a million days with you

Day one, we'd go fishing
Dollar movies on day two
Days three and four, we'd spend in bed
Just like we used to do

A million days with you would go by much too fast
But I've got a million ways
To make our friendship to last
I've got a million ways

Everybody says they want a million bucks
But I'd rather have a million days with you
My account doesn't go that high
But it doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to me

Day five, we would ride our bikes
Camping on day six
Days seven and eight, I'd show you
How much I love you

A million days with you would go by much too fast
But I've got a million ways to make our friendship to last
I've got a million ways
Everybody says they want a million bucks

But I'd rather have a million days with you
My account doesn't go that high
It doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to me
I can't promise you a million bucks

But I can promise I'll be good to you
Everybody wants a million bucks




But I'd rather have a million days with you
A million days with you, a billion days with you

Overall Meaning

The song's lyrics are simple but powerful, conveying a sense of intimacy and devotion that is often lacking in modern love songs. The emphasis on the everyday activities that the couple would do together, such as spending days in bed or riding bikes, creates a sense of familiarity and comfort that is relatable to many people. The repetition of the phrase "I've got a million ways to make our friendship last" further emphasizes the importance of the relationship and the singer's commitment to it.


Overall, "Million Bucks" is a heartfelt and romantic song that celebrates the simple pleasures of life and the value of true love and companionship.

This album has alternately cheered me up and tried to kill me for over a decade and a half. I ADORE it.

Will C

The swing from hyper-pop punk to super dark songs is so emotionally wrenching. Such an amazing album.

I love this song so much! I love the band ALL! Everything about them. I love ALL of ALL! I am from Canada, I heard of them from "The pursuit of tone" documentary about tom delong, he noted that the band ALL was a big influence for him when he wrote early blink songs. I am so glad that I discovered ALL!

Knuckle Buster

This was my wedding song belive it or not.
