BEH BOTE NGA Themes (1999 & 2000)

Beh Bote Nga was a hit Filipino sitcom that aired on GMA Network from March 9, 1999, to April 16, 2003, as part of the GMA KiliTV block. The title is a playful twist on Beh Buti Nga, a sarcastic way of saying “Bleh, good for you!” The show followed the misadventures of Kot (Janno Gibbs) and Tot (Anjo Yllana), two struggling garbagemen always short on rent and constantly bullied by their rivals. Their lives take a wild turn when they stumble upon an old bottle, thinking they can sell it for quick cash—only to find out there’s a clumsy genie inside! Enter Goyong (Steven Claude Goyong), a not-so-great wish-granter who messes up their three wishes. Turns out, he’s just an assistant, and the real genie, G (G Toengi), isn’t much better.

Meanwhile, their uncle Tio Pot (Joey de Leon) comes back home after losing his job as a seaman because of his sexuality. At first, people are shocked, but they welcome him with open arms, and he even opens his own beauty salon, Salon Gonisa. As if things weren’t chaotic enough, another genie, Fer (Anne Curtis), shows up—except she’s more focused on becoming human than actually granting wishes. Through all the crazy and hilarious moments, Kot and Tot eventually reunite with their long-lost father, proving that even with all the magic (and mess-ups), family is what really matters. After its successful run, Beh Bote Nga was eventually replaced by Nuts Entertainment on GMA.

The show also had a catchy theme song during its first season in 1999, composed by Rene Garcia & Dennis Garcia, with re-lyrics by Janno Gibbs and Chito Francisco, re-arranged by Mel Villena, and performed by Janno Gibbs and Anjo Yllana. After its successful run, Beh Bote Nga was eventually replaced by Nuts Entertainment on GMA.

🎵 BEH BOTE NGA Theme (1999, First Version) | Lyric video
Beh Bote Nga! (Beh Bote Nga!)
Beh Bote Nga! (Beh Bote Nga!)
Ahhhhhhh....
Beh Bote Nga!
Beh Bote Nga!

Kayod nang kayod sa maghapon
Paikot-ikot, tulak-kariton
Bote't dyaryo ang aming hanap
sanay sa pagod, sanay sa hirap

Haping-hapi, biglang may Genie!
Siya'y kakampi, Tutulungan kami!
Kapag sa magic na may himala,
tuloy ang buhay — Nakakatuwa!

Beh Bote Nga!
Beh Bote Nga!
Heto na ang swerte namin,
Beh Bote nga!

Beh Bote Nga!
Beh Bote Nga!
Mga pangarap ay aabutin
Beh Bote Nga!

Noong maliliit pa lang kami
Mataas na ang pangarap namin
Ang maka-graduate sa La Salle
Medicine o engineering

Ang sabi ko pa nga,
"How sosy naman, you're not baduy!"
Dahil kami'y mahirap lang,
Dahil kami'y mahirap lang,
Pangarap ay nabitin

Malalaki na nga kami ngayon (Kuya ako lang!)
Nagtutulak na lang ng kariton
Nagdadaan sa Ateneo,
Sinisigaw ay bote't dyaryo!
Ang sabi pa nila, 
Kadiri to death, you're so bantot — Yuck!
Kahit kami ay isnabin,
Kahit kami ay isnabin,
ay okey lang sa amin...

Ahmmmm.... Ahmmmm
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
Biglang may umapir na Genie
Ansabi ay tutulungan daw kami
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
Beh beh beh... Beh bote nga!

Malalaki na nga kami ngayon (Sabing ako lang eh!)
Nagtutulak na lang ng kariton
Nagdadaan sa Ateneo,
Sinisigaw ay bote't dyaryo!
Ang sabi pa nila, 
Kadiri to death, you're so bantot!
Kahit kami ay isnabin,
Kahit kami ay isnabin,
ay okey lang sa amin

Ahmmmm.... Ahmmmm
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
Kahit trabaho nami'y ganito
Malinis, marangal naman ito
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
Beh beh beh... Beh bote nga!
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
Ano ba namang klasing Genie 'to?!
Hindi maibigay ang wishes ko!
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
Beh beh beh... Beh bote nga!
Beh bote nga, Beh bote nga!
