  • I tell you what
    Relief said Fred, pop pickers
    Stick it out, right?
    Not 'alf

    When you're on the doctor's couch you've got to
    Stick it out
    You wanna be a world champ, you've got to
    Stick it right out
    So don't be afraid to risk it
    You know you must stay optimistic
    You gotta laugh
    If you stick it out

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Who says white people have no rhythm?

    Clean your teeth with your feet
    Hug a bus or two
    Take a sprout for a walk
    Make a sand igloo
    And if they fail to see you
    Stick it out so they can feel you
    You gotta laugh
    Yeah
    If you stick it out
    Stick it out, ya gotta stick it out

    You can help somebody you may never meet
    For example, why not just skip with balloons between your knees?
    (Those aren't balloons, actually. Oh. yes)
    From the top of a tall erection
    (Building! Building! It's a building)
    You can hear a sound in your direction
    Stick it out (Stick it out!)
    And make yourself laugh
    (Come on, have a laugh! Have a laugh!)
    (Have a laugh, dear! Come on!)

    My name is Michael Caine
    You can stick it out quietly
    Or you can stick it out loudly

    And if they fail to see you
    Stick it out so they can feel you
    You're gonna laugh
    Yeah
    If you stick it out
    Stick it out, ya gotta stick it out

    How many times did your mum and dad say to you?
    (Stick it out! Stick it out!
    To me! And me!)
    If you can't stick it in
    Then stick it out too
    (Na na na na, na na-na na na na)
    I told you so, we're winning
    I even saw a bank manager grinning
    Stick it out
    Stick it out, ya gotta stick it out
    Stick it out, ya gotta stick it out

    You see, the trouble with Fred is
    He's too hasty
    Now, you never get nowhere if you're too hasty
    Say, what you gotta do Fred
    You have gotta stick it out

    Stick it out
    Stick it out, stick it out, stick it out
    Stick it out, come on
    Stick it out
    Stick it out
    Stick it out, ya gotta stick it out
    Stick it out, ya gotta stick it out
