Somehow those tv and radio commercials got into your head, and you can't get them out. So put them here.
Put a Tic Tac in your mouth and get a bang out of life
Where's the Beef?

OK, I don't remember the real words to this one, only the made up words:
McDonald's is your kind of place
Hamburgers in your face
French Fries up your nose
Pickles between your toes
And don't forget their famous shakes
They come from polluted lakes
McDonalds is your kind of place

Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce. Special orders don't upset us. All we ask is that you let us have it your way!
Another Burger King one.

The Big Red commercials..
So kiss a little longer, longer with Big Red!
That Big Red freshness goes right through it
Your fresh breath goes on and on
While you chew it!
So say goodbye a little longer...

I used to dance around my apartment in Brooklyn when I was a kid (with a frying pan) to that stupid-ass commercial, doodle. I guess it's no wonder I became an advertising writer.
Another one I memorized from those late night channel 9 (WOR-TV in NY) commercials:
"These are the amazing Lee press on-nails. They press on in seconds. No glue, no mess! Simply press on Lee super-stick tabs. Then press on Lee press-on nails. That's all. Easy on, easy off. use them again and again. They just won't break or split. Polish, and they're narly imposible to chip. Press on!"

That is impressive, Blue...I can only remember one from the Philly area that is etched in my mind forever. It was a cheap commercial for a clothing store in Central New Jersey:
If you've got a passion for fashion
If you've got a craving for savings
Take the wheel of your automobile
And SWING on down to Ideal
"I used to dance around my apartment in Brooklyn when I was a kid (with a frying pan) to that stupid-ass commercial, doodle. I guess it's no wonder I became an advertising writer. "
OMG--my friends and I used to do the exact same thing. Wow...wonder if they realized there were scores of little girls learning to act all sexy and seductive from a perfume commercial? LOL!
And I haven't seen his commericals lately, but anyone in the Philly Area remember Alan Rothenberg? "Injured? Call the law offices of Alan Rothenberg"

Brush your breath
Brush your breath
Brush your breath with Dentyne.
one man sleeps while the other man drives,
on the non-stop lawson's run
and the cold, cold juice
in the tank-truck caboose,
stays as fresh as the florida sun.

I wore those tacky Lee Press-on Nails to my sister's Bat Mitzvah and thought I was hot sh-t.
I've never heard of Ideal! I guess we didn't have that store in NY.
Although I don't remember any kind of "slogan" I'll never forget when Courteney Cox was shilling for Playtex or Kotex or whatever. I think it was the first time someone said "period" in a commercial.
My favorite wasn't even from a real commercial...
"Galaxy Glue
Galaxy Glue
life would go to pieces
without Galaxy Glue..."

To add to spiderdj...
you're a pepper!
Blue - what was Galaxy Glue from? I am singing it here, but I can't place it. Wait, was it the Incredible Shrinking Woman?
Anyone from the tri-state area or the northeast remember...
Come to the Poconos - beautiful mount airy lodge...(with the champagne glass bathtub in the commercial!)

"Honeycomb's big.
Yeah yeah yeah!
It's not small.
No, no, no!
Honeycomb's got
a big, big, bite..."
P.S. Yes, Galaxy Glue was from The Incredible Shrinking Woman.
And of course I remember the "beautiful Mount Airy Lodge" commercials...complete with the rooms outfitted with shag rugs and assorted '70s porn decor.

I remember the commercial for COCOA CRISP with the monkey floating down a river singing a song. I can't remember the words to the song though, only the tune! It's driving me crazy
I remember the Mount Airy Lodge Commerical...and Crazy Eddie...
How about....
Monchichi, Monchichi
Oh so soft and cuddly,
Put their hands in their mouths, it's really neat
Fun to tickle their little feet
La la la, la la la
Happy, happy Monchichi!
