I Lost On Jeopardy
|
[Jeopardy/The Greg Kihn Band/1983]
|
|
Ohhhhhh...
|
I was there, to match my intellect, on national TV,
|
Against a plumber, and an architect, both with a Ph.D.
|
I was tense, I was nervous,
|
I guess it just wasn't my night.
|
Art Fleming gave the answers,
|
Oh, but I couldn't get the questions right-ight-ight
|
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby,
|
(Oooh.)
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby,
|
(Oooh.)
|
|
Well I knew I was in trouble now,
|
My hope of winning sank,
|
'Cause I got the Daily Double now,
|
And then my mind went blank.
|
I took Potpourri for one hundred,
|
And then my head started to spin.
|
Well, I'm givin' up. Don Pardo,
|
Just tell me now what I didn't win,
|
Yeah, yeah.
|
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby,
|
(Oooh.)
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby,
|
(Oooh.)
|
|
That's right Al--you lost! And let me tell what you didn't win: a twenty-
|
volume set of the Encyclopedia International, a case of Turtle Wax, and a
|
year's supply of Rice-a-Roni, the San Francisco treat. But that's not all!
|
You also made yourself look like a jerk in front of millions of people! And
|
you brought shame and disgrace on your family name for generations to come!
|
You don't get to come back tomorrow! You don't even get a lousy copy of your
|
home game! You're a complete loser!!
|
|
Don't know what I was thinkin' of,
|
I guess I just wasn't too bright.
|
Well, I sure hope I do better
|
Next weekend on The Price Is Right-ight-ight
|
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby,
|
(Oooh.)
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby,
|
(Oooh.)
|
I lost on Jeopardy,
|
Baby...
