KELLOGG’S are the masters of the musical freestyle in television adverts: think back the catchy very very tasty song for the Bran Flakes series. With the Bran Flakes ads, Kellogg’s proved that when it comes to lyrics, rhyming and logic are not required; in fact the lack of rhyming and logic added weight to the adverts and the outcome was pure genius. When it came to Coco Pops, Kellogg’s showed their rhyming skills by utilising the word pops.
The advert displayed rhyming skills unrivalled by any other cereal company. There’s no doubt that their rhyming skills plays a huge part in making rice krispies covered with a chocolate coating extremely attractive (see video at the end).
2022 Coco Pops lyrics?
And it goes a little something like this:
Coco Pops, chocolate flavour
Coco Pops
Pound coin drops
Tank tops
Sink tops
Laptops
Milk drops, on Coco Pops
iPhone drops
Photo crops
Covid drops
Mr Mops
but nothing tops
Kellogg’s Coco Pops
We could have a gangsta rapper delivering the lyrical flow. The song will also include a fat, dirty beatbox in the background. The result will be a tight, unforgettable lyrical flow that will have the nation bobbing their heads.
