Lyrics

This parody adopts the voice of Tony Kornheiser shilling for advertisers to sponsor his podcast. He has said he only needs a million dollars to make it happen. If he actually raised that kind of cash, I imagine he'd try to recruit some of DC's top talent (such as Sheena Parveen).

I’m gonna need a million dollars to do my show
I’m not going in the red to go out on my own
I only need a million dollars
Just a million dollars
Please give me a million dollars
a measly million dollars

I’ll dress me like a turkey and I’ll wear your logo
I’ll reserve Cillizza’s chair for your CEO
if you give me a million dollars
Just one millions dollars
You don’t need that million dollars
I need that million dollars

Kip Sheeman was great
but with your help we'll do better
Every single day
Sheena Parveen will do the weather
If you have a hundred million pennies, well, that’s OK!
Nigel will drop by with a wheelbarrow today

A parody of Lady Gaga, “A Million Reasons"
