Song 4: Oh Where, Oh Where Has My Little Dog Gone
Dave and the Chipmunks are finding a missing dog. Dave looks behind the bushes, while the Chipmunks look inside the dog catcher's truck. When dusk comes, the dog catcher returns the missing dog to Theodore.

Song 5: Witch Doctor
In the Seville house, the Chipmunks wear masks from Dave's masks collection and sing Witch Doctor. However, the song awakens the neighbors from their nightly slumber. They march toward the house and pound on the door, only to get frightened by the masks Dave and the Chipmunks are wearing.

Song 6: Polly Wolly Doodle
Alvin is doodling a "special kind of magic doodling". He sings a song about the time he, Simon, Theodore, and Dave went to Louisiana and met new friend such as Sal, a grasshopper, a guy who he thinks is a horse, and a chicken, who stole the A on Alvin's shirt, luckily Dave returned it to Alvin. The song ends with a group drawing.

Song 7: Bicycle Built For Two
The Chipmunks think Daisy Bell's new tandem bicycle is more beautiful then her. Daisy is disappointed and tells Dave about it. The Chipmunks sing as they ride Daisy's new bike. When all three ride it, they are stopped by Dave. He and Daisy ride it together, ending the song.

Song 8: Alouette
The Chipmunks are playing war, and claim when Dave, their enemy, reaches their objective, they'll have to rehearse. They try to stop him. Dave asks them how come they're wearing hats. The Chipmunks sing one verse of Alouette. Afterward, Dave asks them to sing it in English, so the Chipmunks translate it to: If You Love Me. They then carry Dave and walk away with him.

Song 9: Ragtime Cowboy Joe
At a TV studio, the Chipmunks sing in a western scene on a dancing horse. While they were singing the song again, Alvin sneaks in the gun shop and shoots it, frightening the horse and it runs away, while Alvin yells out "HI-HO, ALVIN!"

Song 10: While Strolling In the Park
At a park, Alvin buys many different colorful balloons from various vendors. He gave them to Dave and sends him flying into the sky. The Chipmunks sing, while Alvin and Simon are attracted by two different girls. Theodore is instead attracted by a cat, who Theodore shows the park to.

Song 11: Alvin's Harmonica
Late at night, while Dave is napping on a chair, he dreams of Alvin playing his harmonica for their song. The Chipmunks sing, but Alvin says he wants to play his harmonica. Dave lets Alvin make a fool of himself to play his harmonica, but the song changes to cha-cha and Dave gets mad and shouts loudly, waking himself and the Chipmunks up. The Chipmunks put Dave to bed, but just when he nearly falls asleep, Alvin blows his harmonica loudly, awakening Dave again.

Ending
Alvin: "Bye-bye, my friends, you've all been so kind. If you want to see more, just hit rewind."
