Trivia

"Jeopardy" is a hit song released in 1983 by The Greg Kihn Band on their album Kihnspiracy. It is the band's first and only Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, reaching #2 in March 1983.

A parody of the song titled "I Lost on Jeopardy" was released by "Weird Al" Yankovic in 1984. Kihn appeared in a cameo in the music video for Yankovic's parody, driving the car into which Yankovic is thrown after being kicked out of the NBC studios.

Lyrics

Oh Oh Oh Oh

Where were you when I needed you
Well you could not be found
What can I do, oh I believed in you
You're running me around
Well you can take it as a warning
Or take it anyway you like
It's the lightning, not the thunder
You never know where it's gonna strike

Our love's in jeopardy, baby, ooh
Our love's in jeopardy, baby, ooh

Don't be cute, don't be funny now
It's later than you think
Oh what's the use, save your money now
It's hanging on the brink
Don't let go while I'm hanging on
'Cause I've been hanging on so long
It's so hard to be all alone
I know you're not that strong, yeah, yeah

Our love's in jeopardy, baby, ooh
Our love's in jeopardy, baby, ooh

Don't let go while I'm hanging on
'Cause I've been hanging on so long
It's so hard to be all alone
I know you're not that strong, yeah, yeah

Our love's in jeopardy, baby, ooh
Our love's in jeopardy, baby, ooh
Our love's in jeopardy, jeopardy, baby, ooh
Our love's in jeopardy, jeopardy, baby, ooh
