Story Behind The Song

I work for a food service management company. For our summer leadership conference the owner was challenging the team to be better. He (or his son) were toying with "Show me the Money" and trying to make it fit (but not be so OBVIOUSLY about money), so they said "Show me the Sizzle". I thought that had potential for a song.

Song Description

Each of us have something we can bring to the table to take the ordinary and make it extrordinary...if we dig deep and do the do. Using innovation, tenacity and our unique "super power", we can transform this world into something to behold.

Lyrics

Walk in the room and I look around
E'ry body start jumpin' when they hear this sound (sizzle)
If ya'll don't know I'mma tear it down
Build it back right up from the ground


It all started when you said y'could do the do
Only come to find you ain't got a clue
Step aside punk--y'could learn a thing or two
Seems y'all's schoolin' is overdue

Chorus:
Show me the Sizzle--the way you make things pop
Takin' hold the ordinary, makin' it extraordinary
Sizzle- cream rise to the top
Elevate the potentate, Obfuscate the second rate
It's the sizzle and not the steak
It's the ice cream and not the cake
Putin' love in everything you make
While others bring superficial, Show me the sizzle!


Step One: ya needa know the information
Step two: find your inner motivation
Step three: blow away the expectation
Step four: always leave them beggin' for more

Chorus:
Show me the Sizzle--the way you make things pop
Takin' hold the ordinary, makin' it extraordinary
Sizzle- cream rise to the top
Elevate the potentate, Obfuscate the second rate
It's the sizzle and not the steak
It's the ice cream and not the cake
Putin' love in everything you make
While others bring superficial, Show me the sizzle!


Chant
Too many cooks in the kitchen don't know how to cook it right
When they start to fizzle show me the sizzle
