OMG....the scariest part about this commercial is that I just sang the words to this verbatim. And it's "only" been like 30 years since I last saw this commercial...
remember this (1st?) version of the song. had this toy. wasnt dangerous, just took forever for a seven-year-old to scrape up a whole cup of ice. you really had to earn that darn snow cone! LOL!
Jeeeesus! WHERE do people FIND these old commercials?! It's not like they're still being aired to record em. I'm always amazed at what I find from my childhood on YT.
I totally remember this one & still knew the melody!
You are SO right...I can hear this song in my head still from 35 years ago. What I didn't remember was that it didn't crank the shavings out of the front like the Sno-Man or Snoopy one did, that it required all that manual labor to actually scrape it off of the top of a big block of ice. I bet that kept the kids and the neighbor's kids busy for hours!
@sideshowcarny YA your right my mom said its was so hard to scrap it when i had it LOL there's no way they would be aloud to do that if it was that dangerous i even have it on old 8mm film with my mom doing it .
XD funny.... I wonder if the ice melted while the ice bird is on the Wal-Mart shelf! Kid: Mommy I wanna icebird!!! *Takes icebird home* MOMMY!!!!! Where's the god dam ice????
I remember this commercial very well. My friends and I just laughed, because first we thought the bird was very weird looking and then that flavoring looked like something very toxic.
We had one, played with it once, and then we realized it was nothing but a cheese grater. So when we needed cheese grated, we used it all the time. used the cup to collect the cheese. ROFLOL Multi-tasking at its best.
Funny thing, is I totally remember the song+ melody but totally forgot what the video and product looked like! Only five flavor packets? Sounds like the kids would have been stuck with a useless toy in a single summer week's time!
This is some nightmarish mantra from the youth of that era. The comments on this are the best ever. I thank you from the bottom of my sick and twisted heart that you uploaded the correct song. I tried looking previously, and all I got was the less popular version.
when I was a kid I hated this song so I changed the words to this... Ice bird Ice bird your such a lice bird, lets make a licey treat. Scrape in the lice to fill the cup, then add the flavor throw it up, yuck yuck yuck yuck,how about another one, lice bird your a lot of junk!!
Ice turd, ice turd, you're a frozen brown turd, lets make a turdy treat! Scrape the turd to fill the cup, then add the corn and eat it up, yum, yum, yum, squeeze out another one! Ice turd you're a tasty treat!
I just saw this ad today, I had this damn bird the whole time and I am 42 yrs old. Its been on a shelf out in my garage and I never knew what it was I wonder what they are going for on ebay??? I will see if its a nice bird or not. My 7yr old is singing this song right now.
I know I had two of these and I can remember how the flavoring tasted! I forgot totally about this!
Isn't it amazing how back then kids could actually PLAY with this toy that was basically a razor in a duck body... and we LIVED?! Kids (and parents) today are PUSSIES!
@Allison70 And the funny thing is, the kids who played with toys like this and grew up safe with them are the same ones who are for some reason paranoid that OUR kids have to be over protected from "dangerous" toys like this today. (I'm 38 by the way)
There was a segment on Sesame Street (I think it's uploaded on youtube somewhere) showing kids playing around a combine and tractor and harvester. ("have you ever been to the farm"). BOY! If they showed THAT today...! What's with us as parents?
This song is an amazing piece of bubblegum-pop worthy of the wonderful Joey Levine. I' sure this was a superdangerous toy. Look how Mum takes the Ice bird off the Boy to empty the ice. A sharp blade that can grate ice is certainly a brave marketing idea. How about a melon grenade for fun watermelon opening?

it *is* amazing. I do try not to mention how many times I've listened to this commercial in the privacy of my home, for a variety of reasons but mainly because I value my freedom and don't look good in white.
ha ha...Ice Bird sucked...remember laboring with the friggin' thing for hours giving up and tearing open the flavor packets and drinking em straight up
I remember the jingle because this guy who's dad was a preacher was into the occult back in the mid Seventies. We were all talking about Frankenstein, Bird Women, and Dracula. He made a joke about Ice Blood in which a vampire would have a nice cool sanguine drink.
