Way down deep in the middle of the Congo,

A hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango.

He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.

The rhino said, "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo"

Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo.

The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin.

The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.

So when it comes to sun and fun and goodness in the jungle,

They all prefer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

You can't beat the Chocolate adds lol

Cadbury’s Caramel: early 1980s

Hey Mister Beaver, why are you beavering around?

Haven’t you heard of Cadbury’s Caramel?

Soon as that thick Cadbury’s milk chocolate melts with that dreamy caramel — you just have to take things really easy!

Looks like somebody else could do with some!

Take it easy with Cadbury’s Caramel.

Cadbury’s Fruit & Nut 1976

Everyone’s a Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut case.

It’s the nuts and raisins!

They’re all after those crunchy nuts and juicy raisins —

wrapped up in lovely dairy milk chocolate.

Isn’t it strange how the simple combination of —

nutty nuts, juicy raisins, and Cadbury’s chocolate —

can affect people?

Are you a Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut case?

Cadbury’s Roses 1982

Thank you very much for the care they needed,

Thank you very much, thank you very, very, very much!

Cadbury’s Roses chocolates with all your favourite centres!

Thank you very much for doing the dishes,

Thank you very much, thank you very, very, very much!

Thank you very much just for being my missis,

Thank you very, very, very — very, very, very, very,

Thank you very, very, very much!.
