Could you sleep at a time like this?
F# C#
Hearing Oldsmobiles traveling from town to town
F# B
I hear the older kids run past the trees in the mist
C# F#
I hear them laugh in the breeze as the sun goes down

But my strength still ain't abating now
C#
I'm stronger than you

You're simply bigger than me

If what you've done is grown up, then I hate to clue ya
Makes me feel like throwing up and I'm telling it to ya
You know about history and geometry
But you don't know enough to just let a baby be
Now, and you think that I should be tired now
But you don't know my body's all inspired now
And yes it's true that I'm not yet three
Parents, I'm stronger than you
You're just bigger than me, now
La la la la
[[1 min spoken intro]]
Well now, 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
??? I should be resting now
But my strength ain't even cresting now
??? Not yet three
I'm stronger than you
You're simply bigger than me
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 just let the baby be
You think I should be dozing now
But my cheeks are still a rosing now
And I it's true that I'm not yet three
It doesn't matter, I'm stronger than you
You're simply bigger than me
I sat up in my crib and you all 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, frankly, ???
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
I'm stronger than you
You're simply bigger than me
Well now if what you've done is grown up, then I hate to clue ya
??? And I'm telling it to ya
You know about history and geometry
But you don't know enough to just let the baby be, now
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
I'm stronger than you
Just you're bigger than me
La la la la

In fact I'm stronger than you
It's just that you're bigger than me
Yonder mister sun turned the town bright yellow

You can make me lie in the crib, that's fine
But you can't make me sleep]

As Oldsmobiles travel from town to town
[Wait a minute, I have a note about this song
Jonathan, can you please dedicate this song 'Not Yet Three'
To Richard ??? who traveled all the way from Banberry
Why certainly
Oh yeah back to the
The song, excuse me, the song, of course]
And the older kids run past the trees in the mist
And they laugh in the breeze as the sun's going down
You think I should be dozing
[Oh I'm so glad]
That's because I'm not yet three
But my cheeks
[Remember that discretion is the better part of valour]
But my cheeks are still a rosing
[And no one has to sing unless they really want to]
My cheeks are still a rosing
In fact I'm stronger than you
You're just bigger than me
Yonder the sun has turned the town bright yellow
I love twilight more than you do, hello
I know you don't love twilight as much as me
Why don't you take the nap and let me be
You think I should be tired now [you think this]
Just because I'm not yet three
In fact my body's all inspired now [you like that]
In fact I'm stronger than you
You're just bigger than me
Well, I sat up in my crib and they didn't like that
Now they want me to lie down flat on my back
I can't get out of that thing
I can't get out of here
But if them parents think I'm dozing
Frankly their brain's in their rear
You think I should be slowing
That's because I'm not yet three
But I know I could keep going
In fact I'm stronger than you
You're just bigger than me
Well now if what you've done is grown up, I hate to clue ya
I just plain don't respect you and I'm telling this to ya
You know about history and geometry
But you don't know enough to just let me be
You think I should be slowing
That's because I'm not yet three
But I know I could keep going
In fact I'm stronger than you
You're just bigger than me
