Hot summer's day and the kids won't behave
They're quite fractious
They're bitchin' and brayin' and itchin' and playin'
With matches

Though you-oo-ou have a head that's thro-obbin'
Take them to-oo (oh-oh) Baskin & Robbins, baby!

It's a lickin' thing
It's a sa-vi-our for the blues
Mr Whippy sings
"What's the flavour you're gonna choose?"

I've just eaten five (five five five, five)

Chocolate ices, pistachio highs
Keep me ti-ickin' (The sugarI crave)
When temp'rature climbs to the 40's, don't mind
What I'm li-ickin' (choc-chippin', choc-chippin')

Ice cre-ee-eam's my secret desi-i-ire
(Gotta have it, gotta have it)
Calori-i-ies (go-oh) higher and higherf*** it!

It's a licky thing
Yeah, it's better than drugs and booze
It's a sticky thing
Always ends up on rugs and shoes

Two bucks ninety nine? (nine, nine, nine, nine..)
What a crime (crime, crime)hey hey!

Leavin' the wife for the loves of my life
Ben & Jerry (addiction's a b!tch)
I'm sellin' my soul for some cold Rocky Road
Or straw-berry (I need it, I need it)

Ice cre-ee-eam's my one secret thrill-aaahh
(Rum 'n raisin, rum 'n raisin)
Give me three-ee (to go) killer vanillas, baby!

It's a licky thing
Yeah, it's better than drugs and booze
It's a kinky thing
Tried to give up but it's no use

(Repeat and fade)
