    You can taste the meadow with Golden Crown (I think it was meadow anyway)

    and my personal favourite:

    Get up in the morning
    sleeping for bread sir
    Sold out to every monk and beefhead
    oh - oh me ears are alight

    Why find my kids?
    They buck up and a-leave me
    Darling Cheese head
    I was yards to greasy
    oh - oh me ears are alight

    There used to be a Starburst advert that had this slogan: "Oingy-boingy in your mouth". The only reason I remember it is because it sounded like my old dial-up internet when it was dialling-up! :D

    The weetabix marie celest ad! Something along the lines of:

    There was a ship all the other pirates feared
    Even Black-, Blue-, Red- and Yellowbeard
    And the captain was as nasty as they come
    And never once thought to write to his mum
    On the Marie Celeste
    Had the meanest crew of pirates ever dressed
    Then the bo'sun called from the crow's nest
    "There's a ship to the west!"
    [he sees that the crew of said ship are eating Weetabix, general panic ensues]
    Shiver me timbers! Something somthing abandon ship swim for shore!
    It wasn't somethings or ghostly tricks
    It was down to a bowl of Weetabix
    That's why they found no pirates on the Marie Celeste.

    I can't remember the exact words. :(

    Dulux ad from a good few years ago:

    May the gloss in Ross be a good gloss
    May the windowsills of Winchester shine
    Ceilings cover well in Motherwell
    And the walls of Birmingham wipe clean of pea and ham
    And the skirting boards of Fife have a long life
    So brush in hand decorate this land
    With the best paaaaaaaaaaint

    "You can't get a better bit of butter on your knife

    I remember this version:

    There's a grocers's in the town (in the town)
    Opposite the Rose And Crown (Rose And Crown)
    And on Thursdays they go down and load the van
    With Country Life butter from the man (grocer man)

    or

    I'm a Gnu,
    How do you do
    I've just moved into the house next door to you
    I've lost my Ty-phoo
    So let me ask you
    Can I borrow some of that most refreshing brew?
