Lyrics
Come on down, Step up to the front
You’ll be pleased to know – You’re the next contestant,
on The Meet Your Maker Show.
Come on down, pick an answer from the board
Tell us what you know.
You're the next contestant on The Meet Your Maker Show.
Everyone born is entered to win, We all get the chance to play
You’re never quite ready when your number gets called
And you don’t get the choice to stay (here).
Are those the pearly gates? Nope, that’s a studio set.
But that’s a heavenly choir singing right? – That’s for sho,
on The Meet Your Maker Show.
Is there a letter “D”? — Yes there are two!
Buy a vowel and spin for dough.
Solve the puzzel on
The Meet Your Maker Show.
I’ve already been blown to bits, been blown to smitherines
When your bout ready for callin’ it quits
You can enter the land of your dreams.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Everyone born is entered to win, We all get the chance to play.
But you’re never quite ready when your number gets called,
and you don’t get the choice to stay (here).
Come on down, Step up to the front,
Feel the glow – You’re the next contestant,
on The Meet Your Maker Show.
