A Million in One, Two, Three was the Belgian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1977 in London performed by Dream Express. The song was allowed to be performed in English despite the language rules being put back in place, as the song was selected before the rule came into effect.
It was performed 17th on the night following Finland and preceding France. At the close of voting, it finished in 7th place with 69 points.

Need a million in one, two, three
Can't you do a little work for me?
Mister President, can't you see?
I'm never gonna get higher
Need a million in one, two, three
I'm not too clumsy, as you can see
I've got the feeling inside of me
Feel my need and desire now
I've got the look, but never got the money
Just a ten quid flat on the second floor
Too doo doo too too too doo...
Had a dream: holiday in Cannes
A yacht in Monte Carlo next to his
Too doo doo too too too doo...
Joining your big company
Could bring me wealth and sympathy
Think you've got some extra needs?
Hey, hey, hey...
Need a million in one, two, three
Can't you do a little work for me?
Mister President, can't you see?
I'm never gonna get higher
Need a million in one, two, three
I'm not too clumsy, as you can see
I've got the feeling inside of me
Feel my need and desire now
My bedroom wall's covered with glamour
The Lido in December would not be bad
Too doo doo too too too doo...
Ships and sails, Formula races
Super-long drinks down at the Playboy club
Too doo doo too too too doo...
Joining your big company
Could bring me wealth and sympathy
Think you've got some extra needs?
Hey, hey, hey...
I've got the look, but never got the money
Just a ten quid flat on the second floor
Too doo doo too too too doo...
Had a dream: holiday in Cannes
Yacht in Monte Carlo, next to his
Too doo doo too too too doo...
Joining your big company
Could bring me wealth and sympathy
Think you've got some extra needs?
Hey, hey, hey...
Need a million in one, two, three
Can't you do a little work for me?
Mister President, can't you see?
I'm never gonna get higher
Need a million in one, two, three
I'm not too clumsy, as you can see
I've got the feeling inside of me
Feel my need and desire
Need a million in one, two, three
Can't you do a little work for me?
Mister President, can't you see?
I'm never gonna get higher
Need a million in one, two, three
