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
Verse 3: 
Don't know Ebwhat I was thinkin' of, I guess GmI just wasn't to bright
Well I sFmure hope I do better next Ebweekend on the Price Is Right-ight-ight
Chorus 3:

I lost on CmJeopardy, baby, GmooooFmoh
I lost on CmJeopardy! baby!
