J-E-L-L-Y! (The Jelly Song) (Karaoke version)
Aug 9, 201900:02:26Tap to summarizeFrom the Harlem Renaissance to Beyonce, from Peanut Butter Jelly Time to RuPaul and Big Freedia, jelly has been referenced in music across decades and genres. We explore this history in a special episode of The Sporkful food podcast -- and it all culminates in an original song! Here's the karaoke version of the song. Record your own version, share it on social media, and tag it #SporkfulOfJelly! And please subscribe to The Sporkful podcast wherever you listen! . Here are the full lyrics to the song... J-E-L-L-Y (The Jelly Song) I give a jar of jam the respect it deserves And I save a bit of love for those ol’ fruit preserves But my heart will swerve and lift If you sift the fruit chunks out My soul is uncontrollable...as I spread it all about... Oh, Jelly puts the joy in my joyfullest refrain Fruit and pectin is my jam, I spread it on my pain That smooth consistency is the sweetest panacea Can it be that jelly is the key to keeping sane? CHORUS: J-E-L-L-YYYYY Why do I love it just like Romeo loves Juliet? J-E-L-L-YYYYY Why does it set my heart a-flying like a speeding jet? J-E-L-L-YYYYY Why does a spread of it on toast or muffin make me sweat? I’ll tell ya. But I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly yet! Before peanut butter came along my jelly was just fine But spread that peanut butter and the combo is sublime The icing on the cake is the double jelly layers Make that sandwich mine -- It’s peanut butter jelly time! CHORUS: J-E-L-L-YYYYY Why do I love it just like Romeo loves Juliet? J-E-L-L-YYYYY Why does it set my heart a-flying like a speeding jet? J-E-L-L-YYYYY Why does a spread of it on toast or muffin make me sweat? Why? Because! Jelly is the elemental / essence of a fruit condensed / Reduced until its effervescence / drives the primal senses senseless Sealed in jars, my patience tested / pop the top and yes you guessed it! Jelly simply can’t be bested J-E-L-L-Y J-E-L-L-Y J….E….L….L….YYYYYYYYYY Jelly can’t be bested!
