"Somewhere in that ancient mystic trinity....you'll get three." A magic number. For a song aimed at elementary school kids, it has quite the psychedelic edge to it. But then, so did Sesame Street. It sure was fun to be a kid in the 70s. Schoolhouse Rock had a song for all the single digit integers, and this is my favorite. Four and five were good ones too. Groovy and memorable educational tunes. Plus, the animation was fun. I love when the football player wearing number 30 smashes through the too-small opening. Too bad the poor professor guy gets crushed. I also hated that the Giants were leading my Bears 18-0. Blind Melon did a nice version for the Schoolhouse Rock! Rocks album in 1996.
