On the clip show that showed before the finale, they showed a clip of George listening to his answering machine. It has a funny little tune, something like ,"I'm not here right now, where can I be?" What are the words to that? Does anyone know?

On that clip episode that was before the very last episode, there was a clip of George listening to his answering machine and he had a catchy little tune on it. Like it went something like , "Oh where can I be?" Or something like that. If anyone knows the whole song, or knows where I can find the words, tell me!

Believe it or not George isn't at home Please leave a message After the beep I must be out Or I'd pick up the phone Where could I be....?

that's as much as I remember... It goes to the tune of The Greatest American Hero

I think there's also a verse about "why should you care anyway..." or something, but I don't really remember. Anyway, I hope this is what you're looking for!

Isn't there a FAQ for alt.tv.seinfeld somewhere? This one should be number 5 on it.

No offense Lea but you left out "Where could I be?" before the last "Believe it or not"

That song is sung to the tune of "The Greatest American Hero" and was a hit in the U.S. for a little while (believe it or not) :)
