Blind Melon Three Is The Magic Number Lyrics

Three Is The Magic Number Lyrics

Three, oh, it's the magic number,
Yeah it is, it's the magic
number

Somewhere in that ancient mystic trinity
You get three
It's
the magic number

With the past and the present and the future
And
faith and hope and charity
And the heart and the brain and the body
It'll
give you three; it's a magic number,

It takes three legs to make a
tripod
Or to make a table stand
And it takes three wheels to make a
vehicle
And call it a tricycle
Every triangle has three corners
Every
triangle has three sides
No more, no less
You don't have to guess
That
is three, can't you see?
It's the magic number

A man and a woman had a
little baby
Yes they did,
There were three in the family
That's the
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 x 10

Oh, well
3 x 10 is?
30
And 3 x 9 is?
27
3 x 8 is?
24
3 x 7
is?
21
3 x 6 is 18
3 x 5 is 15
3 x 4 is 12
And 3 x 3 is 9
And
3 x 2 is 6
And 3 x 1 is 3, of course
Now dig the pattern once more
3 6
9
12 15 18

Oh! 3 x 10 is?
30
And 3 x 9 is?
27
3 x 8
is?
24
3 x 7 is?
21
3 x 6 is 18
3 x 5 is 15
3 x 4 is
12
And 3 x 3 is 9
And 3 x 2 is 6
And 3 x 1…
What is
it?
3!
Yeah!

A man and a woman had a little baby
There were
three in the family
And that's the magic number
