Memorable Commercial Jingles
.
.
Back when they made halfway decent commercials for TV,
There were a few around that I just loved to hear and see.
Some of the jingles they used in those sales ads back then,
Have remained with me since I was young and still thin.

Memorable Commercial Jingles
.
“I can’t get enough of those sugar crisps, sugar crisp,….,”
Was sung by old Sugar Bear with his deep voice of bliss.
Advertising that sugar coated breakfast cereal so long,
With his final words to granny of “Keeps you going strong.”
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“Brylcreem, a little dab’ll do ya, Brylcreem you look so Debonair.”
Was that tune we all hummed as we creamed up our hair,
With the slick em down cream as advertised all the time,
That seemed to be the stuff to use to make us look fine.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“Meow meow meow meow, Meow meow meow meow,…”
The cute kitty sings with lips moving as if she knew how.
Making us sing right on along as she asks for her breakfast,
Of Meow Mix with her sweet little high voice they did cast.
.
.

“My bologna has a first name, it’s O S C. A. R, My Bologna has….”
Sings that cute little boy eating his Bologna sandwich fast,
With such a sweet little voice, it makes you want to hug him,
And head on into the kitchen and make you a sandwich then.
.
.
.
.
..
.
.From the valley of the jolly, ho, ho, ho, green giant……”
Bellows out that giant green man with a voice so defiant,
That line he used must have convinced me to use his stuff,
As after all of these years, we still eat his products, sho nuff.
.
.
.
.
..
“I’d like to buy the world a Coke, and keep it company….”
All of those young people sang in that perfect harmony,
As they sang together so beautifully each holding a Coke,
That always caused us to head for the refrigerator, no joke.
.
.
.
.
..
.
“Plop Plop, Fizz, Fizz, Oh what a relief it is…………”
Was the line sung by that little man dropping alkaselzers.
Back then I used the fizzy pills for hangover relief at times,
Even though they had an awful taste like a very sour lime.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“Use Ajax, Pom Pom, The foaming cleanser, Po Po Pum Pum Pum”,
Sang those three little elves about that cleanser having fun,
That cuts grease without hardly using any real arm strain,
As that foaming cleanser “floats the dirt rright down the drain,”
.
.
.
.

.
“Winston tastes good like a cigarette should…..”
They sang in those TV ads suggests Winstons are food.
Now how could a nasty cigarette taste good to anyone.
“Winston hooks you good like a cigarette could” is more fun.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
“You’ll wonder where the yellow went,
When you brush your teeth with Pepsodent.”
Was a catchy tune we heard a lot back then,
And I used that Pepsodent, as did my own kin.
.
.
.

.
“N E S T L E S, Nestles makes the very best, Choooclate,”
With that guy, his puppet, and his dog Farkel was great,
For little kids that liked jingles that were kind of stupid then,
But, I still remember the jingle, so it made an impression.

We heard all of these jingles so many times in those days,
And used most of those products represented, I do say,
So I guess most of them could be considered a success.
As I remember them well 60 years later, I do so confess.
