I saw a Dr Demento Top 10 Video show in the 80s on MTV/VH1 and have vague memories of a song that I can't quite remember. The lead singer of the band in the video was a late teen/early twenties guy with orange hair and sang a song about Tangerines. The only lyrics I can remember went something like "She gave me ta-a-a-angerines, ta-a-a-angerines." Ring a bell with anyone?
Other songs on the video show were "I'm on a mexican radio" by Wall of Voodoo and a cover of Elvis' Burnin' Love but I can't remember who did that either. I think Weird Al had a video on the show also.

Lyrics:
She Don't Use Jelly [Version (a)]:
Lyrics from Flaming Lips' original
I know a girl who thinks of ghosts
She'll make you breakfast, she'll make you toast
But she don't use butter and she don't use cheese
She don't use jelly or any of these
She uses vaseline vaseline vaseline
I know a guy who goes to shows
When he's at home and he blows his nose
He don't use tissues or his sleeve
He don't use napkins or any of these
He uses magazines magazines magazines magazines magazines
I know a girl who reminds me of Cher
She's always changing the color of her hair
She don't use nothing that you buy at the store
She likes her hair to be real orange
She uses tangerines tangerines tangerines tangerines tangerines tangerines

Tangerine is a 1997 single released by the English indie rock band, Feeder, or a 1995 single released by the American rock band Buffalo Tom, I'd have to hear it to be sure.
The remake of "Burnin' Love" was by Doctor and the Medics.
