Mom said wake up birthday boy
You're gonna have a party with cake and toys
Your friends are bringing presents
I hope you get a bunch
Now what do you think that they'd like for lunch
Some pepperoni pizza is a nice surprise
Or they might like hot dogs, burgers and fries
I Rubbed my eyes
I said "Whoah Nelly!"
I want some peanut butter
And some jelly for my belly
I don't want anything boiled or fried
With onions or pickles on the side
I don't want fettucini, I don't want vermicelli
I want some peanut butter
And some jelly for my belly
We went to the very best restaurant in town
Sat down to the table and the waiter came around
Translated the menu which was written in French
As my ears began to tickle
And my teeth began to clench
I don't want frogs or eels or snails
I don't want champagne served in pails
I don't want anything slimy or smelly
I want some peanut butter
And some jelly for my belly
I don't want honey or marmalade
Or anything canned that Grandma made
Or anything with garlic
That was made up in a deli
I want some peanut butter
And some jelly for my belly
I DON'T WANT ANYTHING SLIMY OR SMELLY
I WANT SOME PEANUT BUTTER
AND SOME JELLY FOR MY BELLY!
