i lost on jeopardy

i was there to match my intellect on national tv

against a plumber

oh and an architect

both with a phd

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

ooh

i lost on jeopardy

baby

ooh

well

i knew i was in trouble now

my hope of winning sank

oh

'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

ooh

i lost on jeopardy

baby

ooh

that's right

al - you lost

and let me tell you what you didn't win: a twenty set volume of the encyclopedia international

a case of turtle wax

and a years 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 to your family name for generations to come

you don't get to come back tomorrow

you don't even get a lousy copy of our home game

you're a complete loser!

don't know what i was thinkin' of

i guess i just wasn't to bright

well

i sure hope i do better

next weekend on the price is right-ight-ight

i lost on jeopardy

baby

ooh

i lost on jeopardy

baby

ooh

i lost on jeopardy

baby
