About This Song

They want it. They need it. They must have it right now! You hand it over and…nope, they don’t want it anymore, it’s on the floor. Welcome to three. “THREEnager!” is told from the kid’s perspective. They make a fair point: they’ve only been on this planet for three short years, everything is a challenge. That doesn’t make the “why why why” phase any easier to survive, but at least now it has a beat!

This family hip hop anthem for the threenager stage captures the beautiful chaos of raising a three-year-old. Parents of preschoolers who are deep in the trenches: you’re not alone! But yes, things were easier when they were two.

Lyrics

🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵

I’ve only been on this planet
For three short years
But I gotta tell ya one thing is clear
I know I’m loud
And I don’t mean to shout
But that’s just how
My feelings come out

THREEnager

That thing in your hand
I want it a lot
If I don’t have it right now
I’m a blow my top
When you hand it over
I won’t want it no more
I’ll chuck that old thing
Right onto the floor

I’m just being me
And that’s all I can do
Can you believe things were easier
When I was two?
Every day a new challenge
A new battle to wage
But it’s all appropriate
For my age

THREEnager
THREEnager
Why why why why why why why
THREEnager
I’m a THREEnager
Why why why why why why why
THREEnager

  • Let’s Go Outside!

    ByWolfie

    It could be raining. It could be a hurricane! But the kids need to go outside. We’ve all had the realization that no amount of toys, screen time, or couch forts will substitute for just getting them out the door. “Let’s Go Outside!” is that truth set to a beat, it’s as much a pep talk for us as it is for them.

  • Sorry Mommy (I Made a Mess)

    ByWolfie

    Every parent knows the scene: you just tidied up, turned around for one second, and your toddler has redecorated the entire room with blocks, trains, and dinosaurs. “Sorry Mommy (I Made a Mess)” captures that moment perfectly, the parenting experience told from the kid’s point of view. My three year old actually said “I’m sorry mommy, I made a mess” and I knew there was a song there!

  • Squeaky Clean!

    ByFoxy Rox

    Bath time in our house goes one of two ways: absolute refusal to get in, or absolute refusal to get out. Usually both. “Squeaky Clean!” is for that first hurdle — getting everyone into the tub with minimal negotiations. Once the suds are flowing and the rub-a-dub-dub kicks in, even the most reluctant bather starts having a good time. Just please don’t pee! We’re trying to get clean.

  • Bubble Gun!

    ByWolfie

    If you’ve ever watched a kid see a bunch of bubbles floating through the air and completely lose their mind, you already understand this song. “Bubble Gun!” is about that one toy that turns any afternoon into pure magic. The iridescent shine, the cute spherical shape, and the absolute joy when the bubbles start flying.

  • It’s a Stick!

    ByWolfie

    Hand a kid a stick and watch what happens! It’s a sword. It’s a rocket ship. It’s the key to an entire kingdom that didn’t exist thirty seconds ago. “It’s a Stick!” captures that wild, beautiful imagination that turns the simplest thing in the yard into the greatest toy ever made. Plus, “It’s a beautiful incredible stick!” is a direct quote from my 3 year old.

  • Ask For Help!

    ByFoxy Rox

    There’s always that one snack, the favorite toy, the thing your toddler absolutely needs right this second. And instead of asking, they’re already scaling the furniture like a tiny rock climber with zero safety training. “Ask For Help!” is the song for that moment. It’s a gentle reminder that parents are tall for a reason, and there’s no shame in letting someone reach it for you.
