3 Is A Magic Number Lyrics

3 Is A Magic Number
Blind Melon
Album: Schoolhouse Rock!
Rocks


3 is a magic number, yes it is, it's a magic
number
Somewhere in that ancient mystic trinity
You get 3 as a magic
number
The past, and the present, and the future
Faith, and hope, and
charity
The heart, and the brain, and the body
Will give you 3, that's a
magic number

It takes three legs to make a tripod or
To make a table
stand
It takes three wheels to make a vehicle
Called a tricycle
And
every triangle has three corners
Every triangle has three sides
No more,
no less, you don't have to guess
Now this three, can you see? It's a magic
number

1-A man and a woman had a little baby, yes they did
They were
three in the family, that's a magic number

3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27
30

3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30

Now multiply backwards from 3 times
10

2-Three times ten is 30, three times nine is 27
Three times eight
is 24, three times seven is 21
Three times six is 18, three times 5 is
15
Three times 4 is 12, and three times 3 is 9
Three times 2 is 6, and
three times 1 is 3, of course

Now think the pattern once more
3 6 9
12 15 18 21 24 27 30

(repeat 2, 1)
