  • Why don't you, sit right back
    And I, I may tell you, a tale
    A tale of three, little pigs
    And a big, bad, wolf

    Well the first little piggy, well he was kinda hip
    He spent most of his days, just a dreaming of the city
    And then one day, he bought a guitar
    He moved to Hollywood, to become a star
    But, living on the farm, he knew nothing of the city
    Built his house out of straw, what a pity
    Then one day, jamming on some chords
    Along came the wolf, knocking on his door

    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Well I'm huffing, I'm puffing, I'll blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in"

    Well the second little piggy, well he was kinda stoked
    He spent most of his time just a ganga smoking
    Huffing and a puffin down on Venice Beach
    Getting paid money for religious speech
    He built his shelter from what he garbage picked
    Mostly made up of old cans and sticks
    Then one day he was cranking out Bob Marley
    And along came the Wolf on his big bad Harley

    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Well I'm huffing, I'm puffing, I'll blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in"

    Well the third little piggy, the grade A student
    His daddy was a rock star, named Pig Nugent
    Earned his Masters Degree, from Harvard College
    Built his house from his architect knowledge
    A tri-level mansion, Hollywood Hills
    Daddy's rock stardom, paid for the bills
    Then one day came the old house smasher
    The big bad wolf, the little piggy slasher

    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Well I'm huffing, I'm puffing, I'll blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in"

    Well the big bad Wolf
    Well he huffed, and he puffed, all that he could
    And low and behold the little piggy's house stood
    "It's made out of concrete", the little piggy shouted
    The wolf just frowned, as he pouted
    So they called nine-eleven, like any piggy would
    The sent out Rambo, just as fast, as they could

    "Yo, wolf-face, I'm your worst nightmare, your ass is mine"

    Well the wolf fell dead as you can plainly see
    That's to end the story, for you and me
    If you still give a listen, you just may
    Here the big wolf or little piggy say

    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Little pig, little pig, let me in"
    "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin"
    "Well I'm huffing, I'm puffing, I'll blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing, puffin, blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in
    Huffing and a puffin and I'll blow your house in"

    "And the moral of the story is
    A band with no talent can easily amuse
    Idiots, with a stupid, puppet show" Writer/s: MARC L. LEVINTHAL, WILLIAM CHARLES MANSPEAKER

  • Hopefulhillbilly from WisconsinI'm still an analogy man.
  • Zara from Richmond,vaHey Marc from Niagara Falls, some people still like old school animation..which in '93 wasn't really old school, but for your sake I called it that. When you get old it's fun to be nostalgic
  • Pierce Werner from New JerseyFun fact: the umlaut over the y turns it into an o sound. So their name never actually changed. They beat the system
  • Megan from Stevenson, AlI don't know why, but when I was little I was super scared of this video! Now I think it's really cute! I was a wierd child...lol
  • Bobby from Carbondale, PaThey originally called themselves Green Jello, however they got in trouble with the Jello maker, and changed the "O" to a "Y" at the end of the word.
  • Jennifer Harris from Grand Blanc, MiThe song and video are so cute!
  • Chris from Izegem, BelgiumGreen Jelly whoo haa. Mucky Pup wrote that song.
  • Skye from Jefferson City, UtWhy would you name your band Green Jelly? Are they talking about like KY jelly? Gross!!!!
  • Randall from Dallas, TxThe entire Gwar troupe, including band members and Slave Pit helped them produce the video. In fact, Green Jell-o gave them a huge credit at the end of the video.
  • Marc from Niagara Falls, Canadathe very look of the video is totally 1993 uggh way before animation evolved into what it is now.
  • Matt from Newfoundland, Canadathe video for this song is funny but one thing that scaers me is rambo man he looks freaky looking.
  • Patrick from Conyers, GaWhen the song was popular, a local alternative music radio station in Georgia held a contest for its listenrs. If you came dressed as a wolf or a pig, you got free tickets to a concert performed by Green Jelly that day.
