Oh I wish that life was like a gameshow I could use my smarts and my intelligence Oh my folks would be so very proud of me If I won them a years supply of Captain Crunch Oh I wish that life was more like Card Sharks All you'd have to do is pick the right card But I hope that life is not like Jeopardy Just because Jeopardy's a little too hard If I don't win the Sony television, or a stereo A case of Rice-A-Roni will last me for a year or so You too can be a winner Even though you are only a beginner Being lucky is a given When you're rolling with Merv Griffin Life's a wheel and you spin it Not how you play but, but how you win it Life's a stage and we are the players Joker, joker, double slayer Oh I think it's time I had a break now Everyday's the same you know I'm feeling stuck If the Wheel of Fortune will not let me play I could always try my hand at Press Your Luck I never knew that life could be so easy I can be the boss of my own company It is only five half-hour shifts every week Cash and prizes make for me a great salary Pat Sajak is a saviour, he always has a vowel for sale If I could pick the mayor, I'd vote for Wink Martendale Life's a wheel and you spin it Not how you play but, but how you win it Everyday I slave a stupid job When I could be winning on a gameshow Never worry, don't fret now Win yourself a new Corvette now Be a star on television If you make the right decision Life's a wheel and you spin it Not how you play but, but how you win it Life's a stage and we are the players Joker, joker, double slayer
