Yeah It was called "The Gang Show" that's the one where Epstein and Washington performed as the mindreading duo called "Medium and Rare"

Carvelli went on after them and sang two songs

1. Carvelli's Theme
2. Peanut Butter and Jelly.



------------------
Epstein: Once I connect the dots, that's that.

Chico: Clean Clean Clean! ::jumping up and down::
Ed Brown: Ed Brown's Garage, home of the dirty mural.
Louie: Stick out your can, Here comes the Garbarge man!

I taped "The Gang Show" and have watched Carvelli sing "Lunch" about 100 times so far. What a great song!

He is a card. (Charles Fleishman ?sp) I don't know if it is available on VHS, but he did a one night stand on HBO in the ... early 90's maybe - it was after the whole Roger Rabbit thing.


He did lots of songs funny as lunch.

I wanted to bring back this very old thread because I have a song lyrics question. Who remembers the Pizza Man song from the Sweathogs that went something like this:

Paparelli's Pizzeria
Billy drove the delivery van
Little late, but, we all loved him
As the Paparelli Pizza Man! [the Pizza Man]


I don't think I've seen the episode that came from more than a couple of times since it originally aired, so I suspect my memory is not too accurate. Can anyone help with the lyrics and in identifying the source episode? Thanks...!

I remember the song very well. "Peanut Butter And Jelly that's all I put in my belly." Very catchy and funny. I don't remember what episode it was from though.

Tom Bosley was the lead & the three sweat hogs were back ups, I think it was a Rich Little show... I had the song taped on my tape recorder as a kid...

I thought it went-
Paparelli's Pizzeria
Johnny drove the delivery van
Not too bright but we all loved him
'Cause he's the Paparelli's Pizza Man
Hey Pizza Man

Dow dow dow soooo
Making a medium...
Make it to go... oh oh oh oh

Default The first part of the Pizza song On Welcome Back Kotter

I'm only sure of the first part but have different memories of the rest.

All the Sweat Hogs:

Pep, Pep, Pepperoni
An, An, Anchovy

Paparelli's (for some reason I always said Parsonelli's) Pizzeria
Johnny drove the delivery truck
We all knew him, we loved him
The Paparelli pizza man -

Only Horshack: The Pizza man!

Probably wrong, but that's what I recall. Amazing that is still in my head.

I've been trying to find a reference to this, my school rock band performed it and I can't find it anywhere. If anyone has a link that would be great.

It went:
Pep pep pep pep, pepperoni
A a a a anchovy
Mushrooms, olives, and baloney
That's the only pizza for you and...
me/Small, make it a medium, make it a large, make it to go, oh oh

Pepperelli's Pizzeria, Johnny drove the delivery van
Not too bright but we all loved him cause he's the
Pepperelli's pizza man
Hey pizza man (hey pizza man)

(spoken)
Johnny needed to find a job
But he wasn't having any luck
when he heard the pizza parlor
needed someone to drive their truck

So Johnny got his license
by cheating on the test
and now he's delivering pizza pies
and everyone loves him best

One day waiting on the corner
on the corner, waiting for a bus
A truck came speeding down the hill
and was headed straight for us

We all knew it was over
we had just run out of luck
When suddenly the pizza van appeared
in the path of that killer truck

We'll never forget you Johnny
the way you swerved in front of that truck, to save our lives
we rushed over but you were dead before we could thank you,
wherever you are tonight, Johnny, you have our undying love
Two of the pizzas were still hot.

Pepperelli's Pizzeria, Johnny drove the delivery van
Not too bright but we all loved him
cause he's the Pepperelli's pizza man
Hey pizza man (hey pizza man)

Thanks so much for posting the pizza song! I can see that my memory was inaccurate as I thought it was a Billy who drove the van, which you've corrected to Johnny. And I thought it was "little late" instead of "not too bright." It's a shame that this hasn't aired in so many years.

The song is kind of funny, but the episode it's from is a stinker, even by episode four standards.
