R.O.Y. was once described by the Nose as being almost as kickass as that time I did your mom.
Formed as a response to sheer boredom, the experimental-comedy duo R.O.Y. were originally in no way serious about this project. However, following a platinum album (The Tyna Turner Overload), a splendiforous tour of North America, and a triple law suit, it is clear their intentions have changed. The two sole members, Sonic McFlurry and the Nose, have been given the "Hyperactive Ten" and cited as "musical and comedic masterminds, the voices of a new, jackass generation...simply amazing!" After a long hiatus following various financial problems with R.O.Y.'s own record label, While My Walrus Gently Weeps Records, R.O.Y. has returned to finish their long awaited sophmore effort, Plaster Lincolns and the Lauren Effect. Soon after we will be putting together the highly anticipated boxset, R.O.Y.:The First Four Years! The set will include both of the first two albums including altenate versions of songs, outtakes, interviews, and Rarities. The set will also include the songs R.O.Y. released under the Bleedin Gums banner. (During a stay in Britain R.O.Y. played daily at both the Bexley Heath and Brinsley Schwartz Pubs. They performed under the title "The Bleedin Gums", with both band members adopting the name Mick Jones. During this stay they also record an EP, "Foreigner Sucks", as the Bleedin Gums at the legendary Wabbley Road Studios.

Story behind the song
Needing one more song to fill out their Welcome to the Gulf of Mexico EP and feeling extremely pissed off that their more complicated songs kept getting screwed up by their cheap recording equipment, R.O.Y. crafted this gloriously stupid three-chord ode to garage rock.

Jelly beans and heroin Jelly beans and heroin Got some left in my intestine Jelly beans and heroin
