See her at the carnival, where she comes from nobody know-ows

Now that you ask me, I guess I like the way she wears her clothes

The way she smiles at him, her heart just swells, it grows and grow-ows

You think I'm tellin' you fairytales, I suppo-ose, Yay



Don't you know it's magic, ah baby, it's magic

Look in her eyes, there a little bit hazy

Paradise comin' to a sweet little lady

Don't you know it's magic, ah baby, it's magi-ic

Magic taught me to write for a woman in lo-ove, yeah-eah-eah



Take a gun and shoot your friend, as long as you take your tur-ur-urn

When you're only six years o-old, you own the world, you got friends to bur-urn

If you wanna be an indian chief or a sherriff, respect, you've gotta ear-ean

Fairytales, you've gotta lear-earn



Hear we go, everybody

Don't you know it's magic, ah baby, it's magic

You see the little boy standin'

A ball in his hand and a feather in his hair

Don't you know it's magic, ohhh, ah baby, it's magi-ic

Magic carpet ride for a little boys drea-eam, yeah-yeah-eah



When you're dealin' with your brother man to ma-an, oh darlin'

And you nee-ee-eed a helpin' hand

All you've gotta do-oo, is take a positive view-iew

Ah-ah-ah-ah, oh you know you ca-an, plea-ease believe you ca-an, darlin'



Don't you know it's magic, ah baby, it's magic

You take him by the hand and you do what's best

You got a whole lot of love and happiness

Don't you know it's magic, don't you know it's magic

Ah baby, it's magic, ah-ah-ah baby

Magic carpet ride for you and me-ee, yeah-yeah-yeah



Don't you know it's magic, don't you know it's magic, ah baby, it's magic, ahh baby-ac
