Imogen's Lament (I'm Terribly Tired of Being Three) Lyrics

I'm terribly tired of being three,
I'm terribly tired of being three,
I wanna be four, it's a whole lot more,
I'm terribly tired of being three.

If I was four I could ride a bike for sure,
If I was four I could stay up late,
If I was four I could be much taller,
If I was four life would be great!

I'm terribly tired of being three,
I'm terribly, terribly tired of being three,
I wanna be four it's a whole lot more,
Yes, I'm terribly tired of being three.

If I was four I could tie my shoes for sure,
If I was four I could reach that jar,
If I was four life I could write my name down,
If I was four I'd be a star!

I'm terribly tired of being three,
Three's not the number for me,
I wanna be four it's a whole lot more,
Yes! four's the number to be!
