Lyrics
(this is a rough estimate. Lyrics vary widely live. Some settling may occur during shipping. Do not eat, discard if opened.)
So I was sitting at home one night in my Lazy Boy recliner watching E
Entertainment television.
It was the true Hollywood story of a man from the 70’s we thought would be
The next big thing.
You may remember him as a man of infinite promise from films such as
Baby Blue Marine
I am referring to of course the man the myth the legend the one and only
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT

Now I realize that JAN MICHAEL VINCENT may not exactly be what you would call an A list celebrity
I know he isn’t the star that he once was but I think he’s still got some
Name recognition
If you remember him at all its probably from the old
Airwolf television program
You all remember Airwolf don’t you? It was kinda like Night rider
Only in the sky…
So Hollywood, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Hollywood, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Hollywood, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Hollywood, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Now when you really think about it, there was no real difference between
Night Rider and Airwolf
In Night Rider you had a talking car, but in Airwolf you’ve got
Ernest Borgnine riding shotgun
And therein lies the problem I believe in why no one remembers the one and only
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
I mean, Hasselhoff only had to compete with a talking car but Jan Michael Vincent had an Oscar winner as a sidekick
Ernest Borgnine got all the funny lines while Jan Michael just squinted and
Blew stuff up
And now Jan Michael Vincent lies unwanted, forgotten and alone
While Hasselhoff is WORSHIPPED AS A GOD IN EUROPE!

I have 287 channels on my cable television to choose from
That’s broadband
I have 287 channels on my living room television to choose from
That’s digital cable
With 287 channels of 24 hour entertainment you can’t tell there’s no place for
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
With 287 channels of nonstop carp to choose from you can’t tell me theres no place for
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
I mean, the Lifetime network always needs someone to play the wife beater right? Why not JAN MICHAEL VINCENT?
There.s like 18 all sports networks on tv these days, need a Sumo commentator?
Call JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Every damn celebrity, even Carson Daly, has a talk show why not
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Infomercials…Home shopping…Soft core porno for god sake pick up the phone and call
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Television, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Television, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Television, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Television, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!

As I drifted off to sleep that night in my Lazyboy recliner, I dreamed of a project of intense significance
It was the perfect vehicle to resurrect the career of the one and only
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
I don’t remember all the details, but starred him and Sally Struthers in a love triangle with Nell Carter
It was a story of hope, loss, betrayal and redemption
Awww, it was beautiful
So what I’m saying is that we, as members of the entertainment community must reach out to JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
You’re probably asking yourself, “Well what can I do?” To ease the pain of
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT
Well the least you can do is watch any Airwolf reruns when they come up on
the USA network
The very least that you can do is run out to Blockbuster and rent a copy of
Buffalo 66.
Hollywood, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Television, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Radio, Are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
Internet, are you listening? JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
JAN MICHAEL VINCENT!
