I was vacationing in Los Angeles
I have a cousin who is in the movies living in West Hollywood
But that wasn’t my purpose to come to LA
Then there’s Universal Studios sitting high above
But there is more to think of
I visited NBC Studios in Burbank
The theme was “Come home to NBC”
Well with a slogan like that, I had to go and see
I took a tour throughout
But as I go further, you will know what I am talking about
I actually saw what is behind the scenes at the Wheel Of Fortune
It wasn’t the Host and C-Host
A show that goes coast to coast
It was pieces of wood in where they stood
The Fortune wheel is nothing more than some carved wood and pasted paper around the wood
Now the camera doesn’t pick up that
The TV audience only sees the glamour being a track
I had the opportunity to see Bob Hope and Ann Julian
I was also able to see the NBC Nightly News live
Well this is Anthony Blake on the scene, and I had to write what needed to come clean
Now you know what the Wheel of Fortune is about
Until next time, I must sign out.
