The picture used in this article is unsatisfactory.
Reason: Could someone grab one from the Elwood City Turns 100! gallery?
Please feel free to replace it so it conforms to Arthur Wiki conventions.

Jacob Katzenellenbogan is a song in "Elwood City Turns 100!" about the person of the same name.

Lyrics

The valley all around us was nothing but wood,

The trees were right for cuttin', the timber was good.

To chop, to stump, and stub.

A man known as Jacob,

Katzenellenbogen, a lumber tycoon.

Built a busy sawmill beside a lagoon.

Soon woodchips filled the air,

And got in people's hair.

Axes gleamed, horses teamed, chop chop chop timber!

Jacob Katzenellenbogen founded Elwood (founded Elwood), Elwood City (Elwood City).

So I went a hikin' to find a good spot,

A place to build a mansion, a heavenly thought.

And you must know at all,

To build a city hall,

Any kind of power plant,

And tower and house,

Even stores and restaurants,

And a pretty good mound.

The mountain cracked right down,

And Uncle Webb renowned!

Butlers screamed, horses gleamed,

Houses multiplied!

Jacob Katzenellenbogen founded Elwood (founded Elwood), Elwood City (Elwood City),

Jacob Katzenellenbogen!

-speaking- But I wanted it to be called? Elmwood! Darned Bureaucracy!
