    back to music

    Our first ever album...

    ...didn't come without some trouble...

     

    Sugar Rush

    THE PRIMARY YEARS

    This is a collection of our “early” work. Some of it is quite embarrassing, like the time when we were told to take down our song ‘Peppa Pig’ from iTunes because we used their TV character’s copyrighted name. But we didn’t let that stop us, so we rename it ‘Pep Up Pig’. Indeed, it cheered us up, specially when we saw our names all over national newspapers, including The Telegraph, Daily Mail and everywhere on the internet (try searching ‘Magician’s Nephew Band Peppa Pig’ and you’ll see…)

    ​

    We don’t sing much about ‘Ice Cream’ these days, but this track got us in the St Albans International Film Festival (we entered the music video category) and gave us one of our first gigs. Talking first gigs, we really rocked the Relish Burgers Restaurant, the poor customers couldn’t talk or celebrate their birthdays properly because of the “noise”, but we learned a valuable rock’n’roll lesson – have attitude and always give 110% to the crowd, even if they can only handle about 23%...

    ​

    We hope you enjoy the early sounds of the Magician’s Nephew Band, we know these songs will come back to haunt us when we are older, but hey, you’ve got to start somewhere…

    Ice Cream Lyrics

     

    Chorus

    Ice Cream, can I have my ice cream

    You promised me my ice cream

    I’m crazy for my ice cream

    Can I have my ice cream 

     

    Verse 1

    Done the times tables

    Practiced all my spellings

    Wrote about the weekend

    Sailed through my readings

     

    Battled through my scales

    On the black recorder

    Got our neighbours growling

    And the dogs all howling

     

    Bridge

    How can you put me through this ordeal

    I’ll shout and scream but I will not kneel

    I have done all you asked me to do

    And now is the time to get what I’m due

     

    Chorus

     

    Verse 2

    Tidied up my Lego

    Put away the teddies

    Stopped the football bashing

    And the window smashing

     

    Gobbled up the spinach

    And the mashed potato

    Broccoli was bitter

    But I am not a quitter

     

    Bridge

     

    Chorus

    Ice Cream, can I have my ice cream

    You promised me my ice cream

    I’m crazy for my ice cream

    Can I have my Ice cream

    Super Heroes Lyrics

     

    Super heroes flying all around 

    Helping people on the ground

    Super heroes flying in the air 

    Can’t you see them all up there

     

    Super heroes we need you?

    There’s a robbery at the Zoo

    The tigers are missing and the leopards too

    The next ones to go are the Kangoroos

     

    Super heroes flying all around 

    Helping people on the ground

    Super heroes flying in the air 

    Can’t you see them all up there

     

    This is not a silly prank

    There’s a riot at the bank

    It is the Joker and his gang

    Come and help we heard a big bang

     

    The situation is looking dire

    The council library is on fire

    All the flames are getting higher

    Please come now it is our desire

    Bed Time Lyrics

     

    I don’t wanna go to bed You don’t wanna go to bed 

    We don’t wanna go oh oh oh Oh

     

    Mamma tell me why I need to sleep so much

    can’t you step aside  let me be the judge

    If I could choose I play all day 

    Can’t you let me have my way

     

    I don’t wanna go to bed You don’t wanna go to bed 

    We don’t wanna go oh oh oh Oh

     

    Now I feel it’s  time for me to decide

    Everyday the same I want to run and hide

    You know it’s time I’m not a child

    I’ll stay up and I won’t go wild

     

     

    I don’t wanna go to bed

    Got the jeebies in my head

    Every night when you call

    I’m not tired at all

     

    I don’t wanna to go bed

    And your face is turning red

    Every night when you call

    Feel I’m climbing the wall

    Monday Mornings Lyrics

     

    Another Monday morning and I’m going to school

    My books in the bag and I feel like a mule

    The schedule for the day will be heavy and tough

    Sure by lunch time it will be quite enough

     

    I can’t multiply and my tables are wrong

    Doesn’t make a difference even singing a song

    Division and addition are all over the place

    In geometry my angles cause acute headache

     

    But it is cool I can play guitar

    It is all good I want to be a star

    It’s OK we’re gonna make a stand (with our rock’n roll band)

    We’ll be fine you’ll be my biggest fan

     

    Back into the class we just had our break

    History again oh for goodness sake

    Henry and the wives are the topic on show

    Naughty Anne Boleyn is the only one I know

     

    Why can’t we study our future instead

    Rumours from the past never stick in my head

    Grammar and spellings doesn’t make any sense

    Future’s not simple and the past is all tense

     

    But it is cool I can play the guitar

    It is all good I want to be a star

    It’s OK we’re gonna make a stand (with our rock’n roll band)

    We’ll be fine you’ll be my biggest fan

     

    I’m gonna play the guitar In my rock’n’roll band

    I’m gonna make it far I’m gonna be a star

    Peppa Pig Lyrics

     

    My friends have lost their faith

    They will scream it to your face

    In the playground of our school

    Peppa Pig’s no longer cool

     

    We all bought your DVDs

    You were the greatest on TV

    We had so much joy

    You were my favorite toy

     

    Peppa Pig Peppa Pig 

    Why aren’t you funny anymore

    Peppa Pig Peppa Pig 

    You made us laugh so much before 

    Peppa Pig I’m over you I’m in year 4

    Peppa Pig I just don’t love you any more

     

     

    I don’t mean to be cruel 

    But you’re not coming with me to school

    The times we shared were fine

    Now we need to draw the line

     

    I know this must be hard

    And I mean no disregard

    Let’s go our separate ways

    You and me were just a phase
