The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors.
If an acceptable name is found, then the article should be moved to the new title.

"Spellbound"
Composed by: Pure West
Vocals	Ben Campbell (English) Éric Gaudry (French) Emerson Caperbat (Brazilian Portuguese) Blas García (Latin American Spanish) Francesc Belda (European Spanish)
Appears in	Donkey Kong Country – "The Curse of Kongo Bongo" (1996)

"Spellbound" is the second song in the Donkey Kong Country television series episode "The Curse of Kongo Bongo". Just after Bluster Kong starts running away with his copy of Bluebeard Baboon's curse letter, the scene immediately transitions to General Klump and Krusha still in their spellbound states while King K. Rool sings this song.

This song is omitted in the Japanese and Sinhala dubs.

With this book of spells, I will unleash an ancient power
I can cause disaster, bring down mountains or make flowers
All the gators in the land will rejoice and sing
When I make the apes of Kongo Bongo puppets on a string

They'll be spellbound and in my power
I'll shrink them down to size and then I'll swat them all like flies

Donkey Kong will file my claws, I'll make him oil my feet
I'll turn bananas into cheese; there'll be nothing left to eat
I'll freeze Cranky's hologram and then I'll stuff him in a jar
I'll use him as a nightlight on the wall in my boudoir

Ruler of the universe, I feel so sublime
I'll pull out my stick and make them limbo a thousand times!

They'll be spellbound and in my power
I'll shrink them down to size and then I'll swat them all like flies
They'll be spellbound, they'll run for cover
I'll turn them into big-eared mice, it won't be very nice!

Avec cette formule magique, je vais faire un malheur Je transporterai les montagnes et ferai pousser des fleurs Tous les sauriens se réjouiront et chanteront sur cette île Je ferai danser les singes comme des marionnettes au bout d'un fil Je les ferai taire, ils seront envoûtés Je les rétrécirai et les écraserai comme des mouches Donkey Kong limera mes griffes et me huilera les pieds Les bananes seront en fromage, y a rien d'autre à manger L'hologramme du vieux Cranky sera coincé dans un bocal Et je l'accrocherai au mur pour éclairer mon journal Maître de l'univers, je gouverne comme un roi D'un coup de baguette magique, je les ferai ramper devant moi Je les ferai taire, ils seront envoûtés Je les rétrécirai et les écraserai comme des mouches Ils voudront fuir, ils seront terrifiés Je les transformerai en souris vertes, ils auront l'air bien louches

With this magical formula, I'll cause a stir I will move mountains and make flowers bloom All saurians will rejoice and sing on this island I'll make the apes dance like puppets on a string I will silence them, they'll be spellbound I'll shrink them and crush them like flies Donkey Kong will file my claws and oil my feet Bananas will turn into cheese, there's nothing else to eat Old Cranky's hologram will be stuck in a jar And I'll hang it on the wall to light up my newspaper Master of the universe, I rule like a king With a wave of my magic wand, I'll make them grovel to me I will silence them, they'll be spellbound I'll shrink them and crush them like flies They'll want to flee, they'll be terrified I'll turn them into green mice, they'll look pretty shady

Con questo libro di incantesimi, scatenerò un potere naturale Posso causare disastri, abbattere montagne o fare del male Tutti gli alligatori del paese si rallegreranno e canteranno Quando renderò dei burattini tutti quelli che sull'Isola Kong resteranno Rimarranno incantati e sotto il mio potere Li rimpicciolirò e poi li schiaccerò tutti come mosche nere Donkey Kong mi limerà gli artigli, le mie zampe dovrà massaggiare Trasformerò le banane in formaggio, non ci sarà più niente da mangiare Congelerò l'ologramma di Cranky e poi lo metterò in un barattolo Lo terrò nella mia stanza da letto e lo userò come giocattolo Sovrano dell'universo, mi sento così sublime Tirerò fuori il mio bastone, diventerò[sic] sudditi del mio regime Rimarranno incantati e sotto il mio potere Li rimpicciolirò e poi li schiaccerò tutti come mosche nere Rimarranno incantati, correranno ai ripari Li trasformerò in topi dalle grandi orecchie e si chiuderanno i sipari
