Not yet Three - Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers

作词：Jonathan Richman

作曲：Jonathan Richman

Could you sleep at a time like this

Hearing Oldsmobiles traveling from town to town

I hear the older kids run past the trees in the mist

I hear them laugh in the breeze as the sun goes down

You think I should be fading now

That's because I'm not yet three

But my strength still ain't abating now

I'm stronger than you

You're simply bigger than me

Well yonder the sun has turned the town bright yellow

I love twilight more than you do hello

You don't love twilight as much as me

Why don't you take the nap and let the baby be

You think I should be tired now

But my body's all inspired now

And yes it's true that I'm not yet three

But I'm stronger than you

You're simply bigger than me

Look I sat up in my crib and you didn't like that

So now I have to lie down flat on my back

I can't get out of this thing

I can't get out of here

But if you think I'm sleeping oh no that's all mistaken

That's right

You think I should be dozing now

But my cheeks are still a rosing now

And yes it's true that I'm not yet three

It doesn't matter I'm stronger than you

You're simply bigger than me

Well now if what you've done is grown up I hate to clue ya

I just plain don't like you and I'm telling this to ya

You know about history and geometry

But you don't know enough to just let the baby be

And you think I should be tired now

That's because I'm not yet three

My body's all inspired now

In fact I'm stronger than you

You're simply bigger than me

Ok
