Lyrics

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 ayear'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!
Andyou 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 yourhome 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...
