Lyrics

J E L L O
Oh, the big red letters stand for the Jell-O family.
Oh, the big red letters stand for the Jell-O family.
It's Jell-O! Jell-O pudding! Jell-O tapioca pudding, yessiree!

Living in Utah you'll have to grin and bear it 'cuz we like our Jell-O green with shredded carrot.

J E L L O
Oh, I love the way it jiggles when I hold it on my spoon.
Oh, I love the way it jiggles when I hold it on my spoon.
It's happy! Happy Jell-O! Jell-O Gelatin DessertsTM are very good for me!
Jell-O makes me happy!

For all you music trivia-ites, what other moosebutter tune did RB, Jr. write?

Jell-O is funny, like spam, squirrels, and techno music.

I wrote a long, long version of this, that I might record at some time, that talks about the wacky 1950's Jell-O fetish where they put in tuna and mayonaisse and had celery-flavored jello. Seriously.
