The 3 R's​

by Jack Johnson

Three
It's a magic number
Yes it is
It's a magic number

Because 2 times 3 is six
And 3 times 6 is eighteen
And the 18th letter in the alphabet is R

We've got three R's
We're going to talk about today
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Well if you're going to the market to buy some juice
You've got to bring your own bags and you learn to reduce your waste
We've got to learn to reduce

And if your brother or your sister's got some cool clothes
You could try them on before you buy some more of those, reuse
We've got to learn to reuse

And if the first two R's don't work out
And if you've got to make some trash, well don't throw it out
Recycle, we've got to learn to recycle

We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Because 3, it's a magic number
Yes it is
It's a magic number

3, 3, 3
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, (3), 18, 21, 24, 27, (3), 30, 33, 36 (3)
33, 30, 27, (3), 24, 21, 18, (3), 15, 12, 9, 6, and
3, it's a magic number
