lyrics

The Professor and the Skipper
The Howell's and Ginger
Even that sweetheart Maryanne
Thought they'd all be off that island
If it weren't for Gilligan

well, G- I- double L- I
G-A-N spells Gilligan
Gee I, Iwonder why
Nobody wanted to be his friend

He wasn't a loser, a druggie or a boozer
But at 19 he'd used his good luck up
Was it really fair for everybody there
To go around behind his back calling him a fuhcup?

Like the Professor, and the Skipper
The Howell's and Ginger
And even that sweetheart Maryanne
They thought they'd all be off that island
If it weren't for Gilligan

Well G-I-double L-I
G-A-N spells GIlligan
Gee I, I wonder why
Nobody wanted to be his friend

No one really knows what wearing the same clothes
Year after year can do to ya
But it has to be worse when you're blessed with a curse
And no one but yourself there to screw ya

Not the Professor, Not the Skipper
Not Thurston, Lovey, or Ginger
Not even that sweetheart Maryanne
Would give it up to change the luck
Of poor old Gilligan

Well, G-I-double L-I
G-A-N spells Gilligan
Gee I, I wonder why
Nobody wanted to be his friend

Not the Professor, Not the Skipper
Not Thurston, Lovey or GInger
Not even that sweetheart Maryanne
Would have been on T.V.
If it weren't for Gilligan
