Music video Videos corresponding to at least 25 languages were posted, as well as a version featuring a `` jolly and jiggly '' lime green cartoon of a rubbery candy gummy bear in orange underwear basically bouncing around and breakdancing. `` Oh I 'm a yummy, tummy, funny, lucky gummy bear '' and `` I 'm a movin ', groovin ', jammin ', singing gummy bear '' are the most common and mostly understood lyrics of this song. Gummibär, the highly stylized green blue - eyed character, is naked except for orange Y - front briefs and sneakers. Gummibär also seems to be bitten with a small portion of the upper left ear missing, which may be because the song is about candy. The bear 's muzzle or, allowing for anthropomorphism, his mustache and goatee, are sugar - crusted and he only has two small teeth spaced far apart on his lower jaw. The music video has over 1.4 billion views on YouTube as of August 2018. It is the most viewed video on the site that was not uploaded in the 2010s, as well as the oldest video and one of only 3 videos uploaded before the 2010s to have reached 1 billion views ( the others being Axel F and November Rain ).
