My Name Is Not Merv Griffin

Now people stop me often, and ask if I’m Merv Griffin.
But I don’t even know him. I’ve never seen his show.
Now everybody loves him. What would they do without him?
They ask me all about him, [Hey, what about Merv Griffin?] and I don’t even know.

His name is not Merv Griffin, his name is not Merv Griffin,
his name is not Merv Griffin, his real name is George.

They think that they all know me. They tell me I’m their buddy.
They want to touch my body. They want to go to bed.
They give me pens and pencils. They give me candy apples.
They want to see my nipples. I wish that they were dead.

His name is not Merv Griffin, his name is not Merv Griffin,
his name is not Merv Griffin, his real name is George.

I can’t go to the bathroom without somebody peekin’,
And someone’s always sneakin’, and things are getting worse!
People steal my undies, my jockstraps and my panties!
My doctor takes my urine, and sells it to his nurse!

His name is not Merv Griffin, his name is not Merv Griffin,
his name is not Merv Griffin, his real name is George.

My name is not Merv Griffin! My name is not Merv Griffin!
My name is not Merv Griffin! My real name is George!

His name is not Merv Griffin, his name is not Merv Griffin,
his name is not Merv Griffin, his real name is George.

His re-, -al, name, is, Geo-o-o-o-o-o-orge!

I remember watching Merv........he would often have authors on promoting their books. I remember The Other, by Thomas Tryon being promoted on his show. Excellent book, excellent author.

RIP Merv.
I had the opportunity to work for his X-wife Julann in Virginia. The pictures she had in her house of her and Merv meeting with different politicians like Ron and Nancy were incredible.

I will have to get a hold of her. Even tho they were divorced the Love they shared was sincrere.

RIP, Merv. Never met him, but I worked for several radio stations in Connecticut that he owned. I am sorry to hear that he’s passed, but know he is in a much, much better place.

Maybe I’m thinking of someone else or otherwise misremembering but wasn’t Merv Griffin a major financier of the gay rights movement?

I know Merv was the target of a couple of palimony lawsuits, but both were thrown out.

RIP, Sir.

My memories of him are as a pallbearer for the Great Ronaldus.

That seals it for me.

The thing I remember most about Merv is when he bought the Resorts Casino in Atlantic City from Donald Trump. Trump immediately went public and said how he put one over on Merv, selling him a high priced run down building which would allow Trump to upgrade his other three casinos.

Not to rain on your parade, but when Merv first operated resorts, its was the only casino in Atlantic City.

RIP Merv. He contributed a lot that was all positive to our lives. Prayers for his soul, and for Nancy Reagan who will need some strength to bear the loss of her good friend.
