I Lost on Jeopardy is a parody song written and performed by "Weird Al" Yankovic. It is a parody of "Jeopardy" by The Greg Kihn Band.

In the video, Al is a contestant on Jeopardy! (the original Art Fleming version; the current version originally hosted by Alex Trebek would not air for another three months) against an architect and a plumber, both having Ph.D.'s; they effortlessly answer near-impossible clues while Al cannot and eventually gives up. Not only does he lose the game, but he also gets no prizes (not even the parting gift of a home version of Jeopardy!). He hopes to do better "next weekend on The Price Is Right as he is thrown out of the building into a convertible (driven by Greg Kihn himself, who makes a cameo appearance along with Fleming, original Jeopardy! announcer Don Pardo [who was also the longtime announcer on NBC's Saturday Night Live], Al's musical mentor Dr. Demento, and Al's parents).
