Jefferson Starship - "Rock Music"

Mama said be a doctor son
But a voice said follow the music
Papa said be a lawyer boy
But a voice said follow the mu'

"Mu'?!" Has anybody else ever shortened "music" to "mu" in a song, before or since? No! Because it's bad. BAD!

Any others?

This is me being a children's lit nerd, but it reminds me of Half Magic:

Katharine made a hurried suggestion.
"The thing is, we want her to just mew, the way she used to," she said. "The thing is to think of a word that has 'mew' for half of it."
"I know!" said Jane. And she made a wish. "I wish that Carrie the cat may in future say nothing but the word 'music.'"
"Sick!" said Carrie the cat. "Sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick sick."
She looked sick.
