Released by Zoo Entertainment in 1992 with the original band name, Green Jellö, the single was re-released in 1993 under the name Green Jellÿ due to a lawsuit for trademark infringement by the owners of Jell-O. The song peaked at number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the summer of 1993, staying on the chart for 20 weeks, and charted even higher in the United Kingdom, where it reached number five. It also reached number one in New Zealand for two nonconsecutive weeks and charted highly in European countries. The chart success can be partly attributed to the song's unique and heavily aired music video. The song was ranked number 35 on VH1's 40 Most Awesomely Bad Metal Songs...Ever. Writing and compositionWritten by Marc Levinthal and Bill Manspeaker after a "late-night drinkfest" at Zatar's in Hollywood, the song is a re-telling of the classic fairy tale Three Little Pigs, with modern twists—the straw-builder pig escaped the farm where he was raised to begin a new life in Los Angeles, the stick-builder pig is a marijuana-smoking, dumpster diving hippie and preacher from Venice Beach, and the third pig is the son of rock star Pig Nugent with a master's degree in architecture from Harvard University who builds his concrete mansion in Hollywood Hills. The third pig dispatches the Harley-riding Big Bad Wolf by calling in Rambo, who mows the wolf down with a machine gun. The original hand written lyrics to the song, dated 4/24/89 and written on 2 yellow legal pad pages with the title "The 3 LTL' PIGS...", showing changes and corrections were sold by Bill Manspeaker in 2012.{{cn|date=November 2016}} Music videoThe song's stop motion claymation music video received regular rotation on MTV, and in 1993 it was certified gold by the RIAA. "Three Little Pigs" was notable for being the first known music single to debut only in video form; when the music video was first shown on MTV, fans could buy the song on videotape, but not on CD. In 1993, however, the single was finally released in CD form. Changed lyricsTwo versions of the song exist; the only change being the lyrics as to what the second Little Pig was doing. The original lyric "He was kind of stokin'/spent most of his day just a ganja smokin'" was modified to "He was kind of stokin'/spent most of his days in the sun just soakin'". However, the video retained "pot culture" references in this part of the song. Track listingsVinyl pressing
