Put the Lime in the Coke, you nut

and drink em both up... (March 24 Updated Post with video link here)

Few advertisement campaigns make me take notice and think "Wow, why didn't I think about that?" Cool combination.

Take a popular song and tie your product to it by changing a detail or two. In this case a couple of words.

Look for the advertisement on a screen near you.

(This post is about the creativity I like involved with the advertising industry. It's NOT about a 'great new product idea')

Lyrics:
Put the lime in the Coke you nut, you drink em both together
Put the lime in the Coke you nut...
Now let me get this straight
You put the lime in the Coke you nut you drink em both up
Put the lime in the Coke you nut and drink em both together
Put the lime in the Coke you nut then you'll feel better
Put the lime in the Coke you nut and drink em both up
Put the lime in the Coke you nut and drink em both together
Wow! this is coke, with lime

This is SO FUNNY! Thanks for posting this. I saw the commerical but only heard the original words to the song, Lime in the Coconut. I would not have know what a creative play on words this was if you hadn't posted this.

I just thought they stopped at "Lime in the Coke." You nut makes it genius.

Thanks again.

I've tried to find the product in the stores and don't see it yet.
I've visited the Coca-Cola website to view the commercial and can't find it there. (See this link for more information: http://k-57.blogspot.com/2005/03/put-lime-in-coke-you-nut-part-deux.html)

The lyrics are not listed anywhere either.

Do you have more up to date information?
