The Modern Lovers
Not Yet Three

[Verse 1]
Could you sleep at a time like this?
Hearin' Oldsmobiles travelin' 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

[Chorus]
You think I should be fadin' now
That's because I'm not yet three
But my strength still ain't abatin' now
I'm stronger than you, you're simply bigger than me

[Verse 2]
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?

[Chorus]
You think I should be tirеd now
But my body is all inspired now
And yes, it's true that I'm not yеt three
But I'm stronger than you, you're simply bigger than me

[Verse 3]
Look, I sat up in my crib and you didn't like that
So now I have to lie down flat on my back
Can't get outta this thing, I can't get outta here
But if you think I'm sleepin', oh, no, that's all mistaken, that's right
[Chorus]
You think I should be dozin' now
But my cheeks are still a-rosin' now
And yes, it's true that I'm not yet three
Doesn't matter, I'm stronger than you, you're simply bigger than me

[Verse 4]
Well now, if what you've done is grown up, I hate to clue you
I just plain don't like you and I'm tellin' this to you
You know about history and geometry
But you don't know enough to just let the baby be

[Chorus]
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, okay

[Outro]
(La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo)
Yes (La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo)
La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo (La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo)
La-la-la, lee-ah-la, lo (La-la-la, lee-ah-la, lo)
Yeah (La-la, lee-ah-la, lo)
