Little Bo Peep Has Lost Her Jeep
Little Bo Peep Has Lost Her Jeep
Composer(s): Frank De Vol - Jerry Browne
Performer(s): Spike Jones
Private Jackson had a girl
He fondly called Bo Peep
Now Jackson didn't have a car
So drove by in a jeep
They took a ride, the time flew by
And Bo Peep was in Heaven
'Til Jackson cried, "Bo Peep,
This jeep's gotta be in camp by eleven"
So little Bo Peep has lost her jeep
And don't know where to find it
Her soldier boy took it back to camp
And left Bo Peep behind it
It didn't have doors, the seats were hard
But Bo Peep never minded
It didn't ride like a Cadillac
She wondered who designed it
Roller coasters nearly killed her
Aeroplanes they never thrilled her
But with Jackson at the wheel
She got that jeep, jeep, jeep appeal
Now little Bo Peep wants to find her jeep
And find her soldier chappy
If he comes chug-chuggy in his old Blitz buggy
Bo Peep will be happy
Now little Bo Peep has lost her jeep
Her boyfriend made an error
He let her drive, goodness sakes alive
That Bo Peep, she's a terror
The throttle pushed down, she tore through town
The red lights didn't stop her
The soldier knew that they both were through
When she side swiped a copper
Now little Bo Peep has lost her jeep
Oh my, why must her joy end?
Now her little jeep is layin' in a heap
And the guardhouse has her boyfriend

Composer(s): Frederick Herbert; Frank Skinner
Performer(s): The Four Lads
and various other artists
Over and over I whisper your name
Let me make a full confession
You are my magnificent obsession
Day in and day out it's always the same
There is love beyond expression
You are my magnificent obsession
You are everything and more to me as my kisses have told
I keep asking when again you'll be mine to have and to hold
Deep in the darkness when love is aflame heaven is in my possession
For you are my magnificent obsession-obsession
You are everything and more to me as my kisses have told
I keep asking when again you'll be mine to have and to hold
Deep in the darkness when love is aflame heaven is in my possession
For you are my magnificent obsession, you're my magnificent obsession

The Little Blue Man
The Little Blue Man
Composer(s): Paul Klein - Fred Ebb
First release by: Betty Johnson - 1958
One morning when I was out shopping
Though you'll find it hard to believe
A little blue man came out of the crowd
And timidly tugged at my sleeve
"I wuv you! I wuv you!" said the little blue man
"I wuv you! I wuv you to bits!"
"I wuv you!"
He loved me, said the little blue man
And scared me right out of my wits
I hurried back to my apartment
I rushed in and I closed the door
But there on my desk stood the little blue man
Who started to tell me once more
"I wuv you! I wuv you!" said the little blue man
"I wuv you! I wuv you to bits!"
"I wuv you!"
He loved me, said the little blue man
And scared me right out of my wits
For weeks after that I was haunted
Though no one could see him but me
Right by my side was the little blue man
Wherever I happened to be
"I wuv you! I wuv you!" said the little blue man
"I wuv you! I wuv you to bits!"
"I wuv you!"
He loved me, said the little blue man
And scared me right out of my wits
One evening in wild desperation
I rushed to a rooftop in town
And over the side pushed the little blue man
Who sang to me on the way down
"I wuuuuv youuuu!"
I whispered, "Thank goodness that's over!"
I smiled as I hurried outside
But there on the street stood the little blue man
Who said with a tear in his eye
"I don't wuv you anymore"

Magnet And Steel
Composer(s): Walter Egan
Performer(s): Walter Egan
Ooh ooh ah
Now I told you so you ought to know
Ooh it takes some time for a feelin' to grow
Ooh you're so close now I can't let you go
Ooh and I can't let go
For you are a magnet and I am steel
I can't hope that I'll hold you for long
Ooh you're a woman who's lost to your song
Ooh but the love that I feel is so strong
Ooh and it can't be wrong
With you I'm not shy to show the way I feel
With you I might try my secrets to reveal
For you are a magnet and I am steel
For you are a magnet and I am steel

Magical Potion
Magical Potion
Composer(s): Robert Calvert
Performer(s): Robert Calvert
I've tried every conceivable pill
to stop me from getting so ill
but when the ship starts to rock n roll
I've got to reach for me medical bowl
And it would take a magical potion
to carry me across the Atlantic ocean
it's no good you saying it's quicker by air
I'd be very much sicker if I went up there
I'd like to see America
the President and his Cadillac car
Everythings fine in America
but I don't think that I'll get that far
'cause it would take a magical potion
to carry me across the Atlantic ocean
no good you saying it's quicker by air
I'd be sicker if I went up there
Everything in America's fine
the Coca Cola and the Neon sign
Broadway is the place for me
though it's a place that I'll never be
I'd like to go to California
put some flowers in my hair
I'd like to go to Hollywood
see the film-stars if I only could
But it would take a magical potion
to carry me across the Atlantic ocean
no good you saying it's quicker by air
I know I'd be sicker if I went up there

She's lovin' somebody else

Magic Town
Magic Town
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): The Vogues
They told me the streets were all paved with gold
But these dirty sidewalks are gray and concrete cold
They said neon lights were a beautiful sight
But how 'bout the one blinking in my room all night
And where's the magic in this magic town?
Where's the good life they said could be found?
Where's the magic to make all my big dreams come true
I gotta find it, girl, before I send for you
They said in this town you get rich in no time
But here I am and I'm down to my last dime
I just don't know why I bother to try
When nobody here gives a hang if I live or die
And where's the magic in this magic town?
Where's the good life they said could be found?
Where's the magic to make all my big dreams come true
I gotta find it, girl, before I send for you
And where's the magic in this magic town?
Where's the good life they said could be found?
Where's the magic to make all my big dreams come true
I gotta find it, girl, if it can be found
Before I bring you to
This magic town
This magic town

Little Bit Of Heaven
Little Bit Of Heaven
Composer(s): Mark Spiro
Performer(s): Pia Zadora
I used to wonder how everybody other
than me found someone to love
They must have been given a stroke of a little bit of luck
But deep in my heart was a place and a part
That only the right one could fill
Well
my prayers must have all gone through
'Cause somebody up there sent me you
And now I've found my little bit of heaven
I'm feeling like an angel
'Cause now I've fouild my little bit of heaven
I'm feeling more than able
To give you all the secrets nobody ever knew
And put the past behind me
forget about what I have been through
'Cause now I've found my little bit of heaven in you
Now every day just shows another way
How a little bit of love can grow
the ups and downs
Through the sunshine and ram
And the highs and the lows
But I'll just keep believing in the love I've been feeling
And take it one day at a time
'Cause my prayers have all come true
And somebody up there sent me you
And now I've found my little bit of heaven ...
And now I've found my little bit of heaven ...
Now that I've found my little bit of heaven
I'm feeling like an angel
Now that I've found my little bit of heaven
I'm feeling more than able
Now that I've found my little bit of heaven
I'm feeling like an angel
Now that I've found my little bit of heaven
I'm feeling more than able

My friends all said I'd never learn to dance
In fact, they said I didn't stand a chance
The dancin' contest, time to show them moves
Then I found these magic shoes
Oh...shocked the crowd when sparks flew from my feet
As I started groovin' with the beat
Oh, people better watch your Ps & Qs
`Cause I've got magic shoes
Oh...I feel it's now my turn to love
Their winning chance is less than half
The judges votes have all been cast
I come out first instead of last
People are amazed at my control
The secrets hidden underneath my soul
Oh, I've no longer got wallflower blues
`Cause I've got magic shoes
Oh...
Ah...ah...ah...ah...
People are amazed at my control
The secrets hidden underneath my soul
Oh, I've no longer got wallflower blues
`Cause I've got magic shoes

Anselmo, Pedro:
(two Muleteers)
Little bird, little bird
In the cinnamon tree
Little bird, little bird
Do you sing for me?
Do you bring me word
Of one I know?
Little bird, little bird
I love her so
Little bird, little bird
I have to know
Little bird, little bird
Beneath this tree
This cinnamon tree
We learned to love
We learned to cry
For here we met
And here we kissed
And here one cold and moonless night
We said goodbye
Anselmo:
Little bird, little bird
Oh have pity on me
Bring her back to me now
'Neath the cinnamon tree
I have waited too long
Without a song
Little bird, little bird
Please fly, please go
little bird, little bird
And tell her so
Little bird, little bird
Pedro, Muleteers:
Little bird, little bird, ...

Magic Power
Magic Power
Composer(s): Rik Emmett; Michael Levine; Gil Moore
Performer(s): Triumph; Hugo
Something's at the edge of your mind, you don't know what it is
Somethin' you were hopin' to find but your not sure what it is
Then you hear the music and it all comes crystal clear
The music does the talkin' says the things you want to hear
I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
I got the magic power of the music in me
I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
I got the magic power of the music in me
She climbs into bed, pull the covers overhead and turns her little radio on
She's had a rotten day so she hopes the DJ's gonna play her favorite song
It makes her feel much better, brings her closer to her dreams
A little magic power makes it better that it seems
She's young now, she's wild now, she wants to be free
She gets the magic power of the music in me
If you're thinkin' it over but you just can't sort it out
Do you want someone to tell you what they think it's all about
Are you the one and only who's sad and lonely, reachin' for the top
Well the music keeps you goin' and it's never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna stop
The world is full of compromise, and infinite red tape
But the music's got the magic, it's your one chance for escape
So turn me on - turn me up - it's your turn to dream
A little magic power makes it better than it seems
I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
I got the magic power of the music in me
I'm young, I'm wild and I'm free
I got the magic power of the music in me

Magic Moments
Magic Moments
Composer(s): Hal David; Burt Bacharach
Originally performed by: Perry Como
Covered by various other artists
Magic moments, when two hearts are carin'
Magic moments, mem'ries we've been sharing
I'll never forget the moment we kissed the night of the hay ride
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm while takin' a sleigh ride
Chorus
Magic moments, mem'ries we've been sharin'
Magic moments, when two hearts are carin'
Time can't erase the memory of
These magic moments filled with love
The telephone call that tied up the line for hours and hours
The Saturday dance I got up the nerve to send you some flowers
Chorus
(The way that we cheered whenever our team was scoring a touchdown)
The time that the floor fell out of my car when I put the clutch down
(The penny arcade, the games that we played, the fun and the prizes)
The Halloween hop when everyone came in funny disguises
Magic moments filled with love
