The Lyrics
A tribute to how we lost on a game show "The $100,000 Pyramid".
I was there to match my intellect on national TV
Against a dictir, oh and real celebrities, both with a PhD
I was tense, I was nervous, I guess it just wasn't my night
John Davidson gave one of the clues
Oh, but I couldn't get one of our cleus right-ight-ight
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
Well, I knew I was in trouble now
My hope of winning sank
Oh, 'cause I got the Winners' Circle now
And then my mind went blank
I made Theme Songs for twenty-five
And then my head started to look
Well, I'm givin' up, Johnny Gilbert
Just tell me now what I didn't win, yeah, yeah
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
Johnny Gilbert:
That's right, Johnny - you lost
And let me tell you what you didn't win: a twenty set volume of the Hollywood Reporter
A case of Cookie Crisp, and a years supply of Doritos Chips, the unholy grail of cookies
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 Family Feud-eud-eud
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby
Against a dictir, oh and real celebrities, both with a PhD
I was tense, I was nervous, I guess it just wasn't my night
John Davidson gave one of the clues
Oh, but I couldn't get one of our cleus right-ight-ight
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
Well, I knew I was in trouble now
My hope of winning sank
Oh, 'cause I got the Winners' Circle now
And then my mind went blank
I made Theme Songs for twenty-five
And then my head started to look
Well, I'm givin' up, Johnny Gilbert
Just tell me now what I didn't win, yeah, yeah
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
Johnny Gilbert:
That's right, Johnny - you lost
And let me tell you what you didn't win: a twenty set volume of the Hollywood Reporter
A case of Cookie Crisp, and a years supply of Doritos Chips, the unholy grail of cookies
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 Family Feud-eud-eud
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby, ooh
I lost on Pyramid, baby
Am I right?
