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


That song never gets old.
Actually it's a parody of the theme song to "Great American Hero",

Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself.
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
It should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

It's like a light of a new day,
It came from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
Making all of my wishes come true-.

Believe it or not,
I'm walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free-.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me.

Was it also used for a hit novelty song called Gimme Dat Ding by The Pipkins in the 1970's?

I don't know if this is the one you're talking about, but I love the song used in the VW commercial where the guy is trying to stop the wedding. The song is "One Million Miles Away" by J. Ralph.

This sounds like the right commercial. I'll look for the song to be sure. Thanks.
