    I realize this is a very late response.

    I don't recall which group did this, or what the song is named. I only remember the 1st verse and chorus.
    I heard it on the radio several times back in the day.

    Of all the major problems in our land,
    I think that one is getting out of hand.
    I've search and search but nowhere have I seen
    A single little tasty Jelly Bean.
    Mrs. Cagny at the corner candy store
    Has tried and tried but says she can't get more.
    She says to write to Washington D.C.
    She says to write the President
    That where the Jelly Beans were sent.
    And he would answer me.

    I close my eyes and I can see
    A big bag right in front of me
    With pinks and reds and blues and blacks and greens.
    When I reach out there's nothing there
    It seems to me it's so unfair
    That the President has all our Jelly Beans.
