| Song Lyrics: |
Get me a ticket for an aeroplane
Got to get on the Wheel of Fortune game
I just got to win
Spin the wheel again
Oh, Vanna, pick me a letter
("Bankrupt"? What do you mean "bankrupt"?)
I don't care how much money I got to spend
Can't stand to look at Pat Sajak again
Won't throw in the towel
Till I buy a vowel
Oh, Vanna, pick me a letter
(Hey, man! What do you mean there's no F in "phone"?)
Vanna pick me a letter,
No one does it any better
I dream about you (Hey, Vanna, is that an all-over tan or what?)
Vanna, I don't understand
Why you make 100 grand
Not for me to say
Anyway
Get me a ticket for an aeroplane
Gonna be on the Wheel of Fortune game
I just got to win
Spin the wheel again
Oh, Vanna, pick me a letter
[Spins wheel] Go Vanna! Go baby, go! All right! Hey, get out of my face, Pat! Is that a toupee? Is there an L in that word? Is it "Low Rider"? [bell dings] All right, Low Rider! Forget the letter, man, I'll take Vanna White; you beautiful, baby! You and me can play the home game.
Got me a ticket for an aeroplane (All right!)
I'm on the Wheel of Fortune game [time bell rings]
I just love that sound
I'm in the Bonus Round!
Hey, Vanna, pick me a letter
("Lose a turn"? Hey, Pat! Lose this!)
Vanna pick me a letter,
No one does it any better
I dream about you (All right, that IS an all-over tan!)
Vanna, I don't mean to stare
But are you wearing underwear?
Not for me to say
Anyway
I don't care how much money I got to spend
Can't stand to look at Pat Sajak again
Won't throw in the towel
Till I buy a vowel
Oh, Vanna, pick me a letter
Please, Vanna, pick me a letter
All right! I'm ready to pick, baby! ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ! That should cover it, huh? All right, I'll take the sofa, the blender, the microwave, the refrigerator... Hey, man, Pat! What do you mean $500 for a black-and-white 5-inch portable TV set? You got ripped off, man! My brother-in-law could get it for you wholesale! Give me the money and I'll buy the TV set man, all right? Hey, Vanna, come on baby! (Sonic SBL) |
