A-G-L-E-T is a song from the episode "Tip of the Day", describing the importance of what is at the end of a shoelace: an aglet. The song is played by Phineas, Ferb, and friends and sung by Phineas and Candace at a concert held in the Danville Arena, billed as "Phineas and Ferb's Aglet-Aid". It features overlapping lyrics and a catchy tune.
The indented lines show lyrics that Phineas sings at the same time as the singers.
Lyrics[]
Phineas: Through the eye of the needle
It's time to loosen your tongue
Got a tip how to make ends meet
Singers (and crowd): A-G-L-E-T, don't forget it.
Phineas: Gets us all up on our feet, yeah, yeah, yeah
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) don't forget it.
A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) don't forget it.
A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) don't forget it.
A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) don't forget it.
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) Don't forget it.
Phineas: (We're tyin' the world together)
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) Don't forget it.
Phineas: (We're tyin' the world together)
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) Don't forget it.
Phineas: (We're gonna tie the world together!)
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) Don't forget it.
Phineas: (We're gonna tie the world together!)
Phineas: One word at a time!
Phineas: Ladies and gentlemen, my sister, Candace Flynn!
Candace: And in the end, the most important thing
Is that we never forget
The end of a shoelace is called the... the... uh...
Wait a minute! It doesn't matter! I can't believe I was almost sucked into this!
Phineas: I can't believe you still haven't learned the word. I mean, we spelled it a bunch of times in the song.
(During end credits)
Phineas: Too much information
But keep your eye on the ball
We're going to drive it hard to the hole, yeah.
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, Don't forget it.
Phineas: Brings us closer to our sole, yeah.
Singers: A-G-L-E-T, (AGLET!) Don't forget it.
Phineas: (We're gonna tie the world together!)
Phineas: One word at a time!
Candace (shouting in background): It doesn't matter!
Allusions[]
- When Candace begins her solo, it is in the style of MTV Unplugged (acoustic versions of songs), then it switches back to the concert footage for the credit sequence.
- Band Aid: Aglet-Aid is likely an allusion to the Band Aid concert that started in 1984.
Background Information[]
- Vance Ward, Major Monogram and Carl the Intern make cameos in the video.
- While Phineas was singing "We're tyin' the world together" and "We're gonna tie the world together" he was also singing "A-G-L-E-T don't forget it"
- Phineas uses multiple shoe puns: "It's time to loosen your tongue", a 'tongue' also being the sneaker flap; when he says that "We're gonna drive it hard through the hole", he throws the ball into a shoelace hole on a giant sneaker; and while saying "It brings us closer to our soul", he indicates the sole of his shoe, which reads "SOLE" to point out the homophone.
- This is also the song with most people singing in it, because the whole world sings along (or at least Holland, China and Danville).
- A Dan Povenmire look-alike also appears during the song.
- The first time it says "Don't forget it" Fireside Girls it shows Isabella's Mother (Vivian Garcia-Shapiro) in the top-right corner.
