A Max Headroom Commercial Jingle

CC

I cannot remember what his adverts were like (although I know he did some Pepsi or Coca-Cola), possible they were only US based? Anyone have anymore information on them?

Max Headroom radio commercial for New Coke (Jamaican calypso)

Max:

Mon, I was feeling thirsty one afternoon
But my freezer was empty as a hot-air balloon
"I'll get some New Coke" my servant said
(he's as empty as my freezer i-in the head)

I said "just rememeber its New Coke, please"
But I might as well have asked him in ch-ch-Chinese
As he drove off I shouted "Don't forget, Catch the Wave"
And he did, in the car, in the water on the way

Well, I was madder than a monkey in a prickly habit
when he came back with a Pepsi and I said "Dagnabit!
I wanted New Coke, not the p-p-P Word!"
So we rented a boat, and we headed seaward

We were chasing my coke, it was a sight to see
Me in the boat, him swimming after me!
Catch the wave! Catch my New Coke please?
Oh, gosh golly, I wish I had knees.
Oh no...tidal....(blub)
