Well, I can tell you that the song begins with an "E". If you had the "Jeopardy! 25th Anniversary" game cartridge for the original Nintendo Entertainment System, the song appears in the game somewhere!
And the only line in the chorus that does not contain any part of the song's title is "And there are no exceptions to the rule"
