A "literal version" (describing what goes on in the video) was made as a Nickelodeon commercial. It goes as such:
Painty: My mouth looks weird!
Kids:Sure does, Captain!
Painty:I can't hear you!
Kids:We're yelling, Captain!
Painty:Down...
Painty:Here is a pineapple, where are the shells?
Kids:Here comes a man hand!
Painty:Taking a bath so he no longer smells!
Kids: Bubble title!
Painty:Multiple SpongeBobs on multiple ships...
Kids: Here's the title again!
Painty: What's with this fish? And what's with his lips?
Kids: Let's try a tiki title!
Painty: That looks painful! Lots of spinning! Must be dizzy! SpongeBob loses his pants!...There they are!
Painty: Sometimes his nose sounds like a flute!
