Three Years Old

I’m old for my age 
and big for my size
I don’t like NO
and I can’t tell lies

I play with my toys
mostly big trucks and trains
and splash in all puddles
after it rains

I’m old for my age 
and big for my size
I don’t like NO
and I can’t tell lies

I like corn on the cob
and watermelon too,
sweet apple cider
but broccoli neew

I’m old for my age 
and big for my size
I don’t like NO
and I can’t tell lies

I’m up when I’m up
and sleep when I’m down
and if I get mad
just clear out of town

I’m old for my age 
and big for my size
I don’t like NO
and I can’t tell lies

I like stories bout Thomas	
and videos too
and come Halloween
I going to scare you

I’m old for my age 
and big for my size
I don’t like NO
and I can’t tell lies

From a time long ago, would it be DVD's or Mommy's Ipad now?
