about

"Millionaire" dates back to Columbia frat party days, and, slight as it is, it persisted into the '90s because it only has three chords, over and over again, so it was an easy one for the All-Girl Band to pull out on nights when we had to fill two sets.

The chords recycle the Student Teachers song "Looks," and the repeated line "I don't know anything at all" was lifted from the dBs song "Black and White."

Recorded on a Walkman live at Dick Zigun's Coney Island Sideshows by the Sea, 1993(?)

lyrics

There's a millionaire underneath the table
I know it's not right, you know it's not right
But there's a millionaire underneath the table

There's a millionaire underneath the table
Do you think I don't know it's not right?
I don't know anything at all
