Gloy

Cheap brand of glue used by schools that can't afford anything better.

Tacky, but not sticky.

Gloy, Gloy, Glorious Gloy
Glue from the stick you must deploy
And if this you fail to do
You'll find yourself smothered in glue
And also, if you should destroy
A wonderful, innocent stick of Gloy
And replace it with some awful Pritt
Prepare to die, you blasphemous git.
