Gumby is an American clay animation franchise, centered on a green clay humanoid character created and modeled by Art Clokey. The character has been the subject of two television series as well as a feature-length film and other media. Since the original series' run, he has become well known as an example of stop motion clay animation and an influential cultural icon, spawning many tributes, parodies, and merchandising.
Gumby follows the titular character and his adventures through different environments and times in history. Gumby's principal sidekick is Pokey, a talking orange pony. His nemeses are the Blockheads, a pair of humanoid, red-colored figures with cube-shaped heads, who wreak mischief and havoc. The Blockheads were inspired by The Katzenjammer Kids, who were always getting into scrapes and causing discomfort to others. Other characters are Prickle, a yellow dinosaur who sometimes styles himself as a detective with pipe and deerstalker hat like Sherlock Holmes, and Goo, a flying blue mermaid who spits blue goo balls and can change shape at will. Also featured are Gumby's dog Nopey, whose entire vocabulary is the word "nope," and Gumby's parents, Gumbo and Gumba. The later syndicated series in 1987 added Gumby's sister Minga and mastodon friend Denali.

Genres: Animation, Comedy, Family,Gumby, I just can't do anything,
Can't do anything right
Don't ask me
If I'll help when helping you
Just means someone to fight
It's so hard putting on your clothes
You don't even move to cover your skin
Why move, moving is how things begin
The front yard taken by the crows
Blackguards with their shiny pieces of tin
So much fury
You bury it in
Gumby, we should call your daughter
Please, call your daughter again
You must see
Things are getting harder and
Getting more out of hand
Dude, you're not even that old
How bad must it be to be bad as this
All day, filling a bottomless pit
All these trinkets bought and sold
All tokens you've thrown down to the abyss
There's a bottom that you'll never hit
And I don't know just how you explain this
To a kid with nowhere to live
Tell her that the father she has means well
But just has nothing to give
Gumby,
You should call your daughter again
Don't call me,
