Then they’ll take center stage to sing alongside the live in-studio band as the lyrics are projected on screen - but when the music stops and the words disappear, will the contestants belt out the correct missing lyrics, or freeze under pressure?

If they sing nine songs correctly, they are presented with a No. 1 hit and will attempt to sing the final missing lyrics for the top prize of $1 million. A singing waiter hopes to serve up all the correct lyrics and leave with a million dollar tip in the “Waiting For His Big Break!” episode of Don’t Forget the Lyrics! airing Saturday, September 30 (11:00 PM - Midnight ET/PT) on FOX.
