The exact exchange and nuance of phrase in this ritual is very important
You kiddin'?
Stick my tongue to that stupid pole? That's dumb
That's 'cause you know it'll stick
You're full of it!
Oh, yeah?
Yeah
Well, I double dog dare ya
Now it was serious
A double dog dare
What else was left?
But a triple dare you
And the final coup d'egras of all dares
The sinister triple dog dare?
I triple dog dare ya. Ha ha!
Schwartz created a slight breach of etiquette
By skipping the triple dare and going right for the throat
It's a sticky situation
'Cause if Flick is just full of hot air
That phrase'll raise the expectation
Now he's got no choice but doin' the dare
You can't skip the standard triple
For the 'triple dog dare' attack
But, Schwartz himself has said it
And there ain't no way of takin' it back
It's a sticky, sticky, sticky situation
All right, all right
Well go on, smart ass, and do it!
I'm goin'! I'm goin'!
Flick's spine stiffened
His lips curled in a defiant sneer
There was no going back now
This is nothin'. Stuck? Stuck? Stuck! I'm stuck!
Geez! It really worked!
Schwartz's old man was right!
Told ya!
Hey, fellas! Don't leave me. Come back! Come back!
What're we gonna do?
The bell rang. We've gotta go back in
But, what're we gonna do?
We get caught this close to Christmas?
No presents. No BB gun. Let's go!
Hey, don't leave me. Come back!
It's a sticky, sticky, sticky situation
As we bolted back to the classroom from recess
Leaving poor Flick fastened to the flagpole
Only one lingering thought was on my mind
Will we get our themes back today?
Mr. Dain
Ralphie
Flick
Where is Flick?
Has anyone seen Flick?
He was at recess, wasn't he?
Ralphie, do you know where Flick is?
Flick? Flick who?
It's a sticky situation
In the thick of this crazy event
Should you try a lie?
An explanation over Flick
Might could have possibly went
He was kidnapped!
He forgot his lunch
He died
You just sit
Don't dare admit it
If you're caught it might haul you to jail
And in jail, they don't have Christmas
And Santa doesn't answer your mail
It's a sticky, sticky, sticky
Sticky, sticky, sticky
Sticky, sticky, sticky situation!
I said, has anyone seen Flick?
♪
Oh, my Lord!
It's a sticky situation
Oh, my gosh, my tongue is totally numb
(Sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky)
Someone call my family doctor
And could you please ask my mommy to come?
(Hot water! Hot water! Hot water!)
It's a sticky, sticky, sticky situation!
Hot water (Sticky, sticky situation)
Hot water (Sticky, sticky) (It's a sticky situation)
Come on, come on (Sticky, sticky) (It's a sticky, sticky, sticky situation)
Hot water (Sticky, sticky) (It's a sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky)
It's a sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky, sticky
It's a sticky, sticky, sticky
Ow!
Sticky, sticky, sticky
Ow!
Sticky, sticky, sticky situation
Ow!
Oooowww!
