Well I'm hungry,
but I don't want to eat.
I want to taste the world
from my eyebrows to my feet.
But I ain't got no money
to buy a banquet for a prince.
So I will sit right here
and my taste buds will convince me that

Jellybeans, jellybeans.
I love to eat my jellybeans.
When I got the munchies and I don't know what it means
I just eat my jellybeans.

In the Middle East,
people are killing in the name of the Lord.
In Africa,
people need foods that they can't afford.
In my own homeland,
the Red and the Blue are fighting a war.
So I will sit right here
and quit trying to figure out what all this is for because

Jellybeans, jellybeans.
All I need is my jellybeans.
When I read the paper and I don't know what it means
I just eat my jellybeans.

We got:
tutti frutti, cream soda, cappuccino,
chocolate pudding, french vanilla, toasted marshmallow,
bubble gum, cinnamon, top banana,
tangerine, black licorice...
Wait... Why do they even have black licorice?
Yuck.

I got a girl at home,
and she is better than I'll ever be.
She's got straight brown hair,
perfect style, and a college degree.
She's in touch with God,
sweet like spring's first velvet rose.
So I will sit right here,
and wonder why I was the one she chose because

Jellybeans, jellybeans.
All I need is jellybeans.
When she says 'I love you' and I don't know what it means
I just eat my jellybeans.

Jellybeans, jellybeans.
I love to eat my jellybeans.
When I see the world around me and I don't know what it means
I just eat my jellybeans.
