The Lyrics
The greatest program in television history.
Sing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
That news show is bound to get you,
Oh, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
Don’t go slow, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
That news show is bound to get you,
News show... news show... news show... news show... news show... mmm...
(female vocal)
Meet the Press,
Start in to watch, then soon, you’ll be watching,
Meet the Press,
Turn on the heat, your feet will keep beating,
One, two, three,
It’s a talk sensation, (dee-de-oh!)
You’ll agree,
It’s the show that’s putting the world on its feet,
Meet the Press,
Once you begin, you have to give in to
Meet the Press,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
Oh, you’ll catch on at once,
Well, Chuck Todd is on TV,
Watch that Meet the Press!
(vocal trio)
Meet the Press,
Start in to watch, then soon, you’ll be watching,
Meet the Press,
Turn on the heat, your feet will keep beating,
One, two, three,
It’s a talk sensation, (doo-doo-do-doo!)
You’ll agree,
It’s the show that’s putting the world on its feet,
Meet the Press,
Once you begin, you have to give in to
Meet the Press,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
You’ll catch on at once,
Chuck Todd is on TV,
Watch that Meet the Press, whoa!
