Brylcreem
 

Does anyone here know the lyrics to the jingle on Brylcreem?

Brylcreem, a little dab will do ya.
Something
Something
Something.
They love to run their fingers through your hair.

I think it's ironic that a guy with my hairline can remember.

Brylcream, a little dab will do ya,
Brylcream, you'll be so debonair.
Brylcream, the gals will all persue ya,
Rub a little Brylcream in your hair.

Brylcreem, a little dab will do ya.
Brylcreem, Something
Brylcreem, the gals will all pursue ya'
They'll love to run their fingers through your hair.

Someone said this is how it goes:

Brylcreem, a little dab will do ya
Use more only if you dare
But watch out the gals will all pursue ya
They love to get their fingers in your hair

Is this about right?

I'm not sure if this is the first or second verse.

Brylcreem, a little dab will do ya.
Use more only if you dare
but watch out the gals will all pursue yaaaaaa.
They love to run their fingers through your hair.

When the dry look became popular, the last line was changed to, "They'll love the natural look it gives your hair."

Fred Flintstone's famous "Yabba Dabba Doo" is derived from this motto.

brylcreem a little dab'l do ya. Brylcreem you'll look so debonair,Brylcreem the gals will all pursue ya, they love to get their fingers through your hair.

I don't think I ever used Bryylcream. But when I was sporting a flat top (13-14) I was buying "butch wax" by the gallon.

A heavy application of Brylcreem really helps to keep your helmet in place.

helps with that wind resistance
 

HI,
That hair needs to be swept back just like the helmet, and if you wear enough cream it may break your fall a abit in a sudden crash ( note you may lose some hair during a crash due to brakage.:eek:).
Although it does tend to run in your eye in the rain or if your rather warm.
Yooowwwwww, I cant seeee.:twitchy:...
DOUg

I used them both. One time I substituted Vaseline for Butch wax.......BIG mistake....took 2 days to wash it out.:lol:
When I got older and wiser moved on to English Leather and Jade East. IIRC, you could buy about a half pint of that stuff for a few bucks.

HEheh
 

HI,
My favorite was that smelly old brute, ALthough when I was a young lad almost shaving my first girl friend bought me some of that (OLD SPICE) now that brings back memories....:love:
Aw the good ye really oldie but goodie days,,,
DOug

now I will upset a few of you 25 cents a GAllon for gas, and a Nickel coke that was so strong your eyes would water..

I still like Old Spice! :cheers:

Nah, Old Spice was what my Dad wore. He was of the depression years and I'm of the modern generation. Now Brut was good too...had that nice chain around the bottle.

As far as gas, yes .25/gallon was common. I had a 1960 Corvette and would just go to one of my local stations, fill up, and sign the ticket. At the end of the week went in and paid my bill, and sometimes let it go for two weeks. Nothing was said, it was just the way of doing business. Same at the grocery store.
Speaking of the Coke, you can still get the old formula. It is imported from Mexico and made with cane sugar insted of corn syrup......have to go to a Mexican grocery and it's pricey but it's the real thing.

Yup. I sure remember that stuff. Seems like it came with a plastic brush/scalp massager attached to the lid that's missing in this pic, no?

Who knows the chords to the jingle?

Yay! I'm not crazy after all. Well, okay...I know, I know.:o

Here's another version of the Brylcreem commercial: Fun stuff!

Wow! I didn't know the video would imbed in the post. How cool is that?

Well, according to TruFs video, this looks like the winner! :thumb:

Yeah, me too. I'm not sure why I ever used anything in my hair, cause it gets plenty greasy on its own pretty quickly.

Full disclosure: I haven't read all the posts, so somebody else may have answered already. But if not, I have it on a CD of old radio shows:

Brylcreem, a little dab'll do ya
Use more only if you dare.
Brylcreem, the girls will all pursue you.
They'll love to run their fingers through your hair.
I used about a tube a week in junior high. It doesn't work.
