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
