Britney Spears – 3 lyrics
1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul, and Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)
Count em

Hey pick a night
To come out and play
If it's alright
What do you say?

Merry the more
Triple fun that way
Twister on the floor
What do you say?

Are - you in
Livin' in sin is the new thing (yeah)
Are - you in
I am countin'!

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)
Count em

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)
Count em

Three is a charm
Two is not the same
I don't see the harm
So are you game?

Lets' make a team
Make 'em say my name
Love in the extreme
Now are you game?

Are - you in
Livin' in sin is the new thing
Are - you in
I am countin'!

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)
Count em

What we do is innocent
Just for fun and nothin' meant
If you don't like the company
Let's just do it you and me
You and me...
Or three...
Or four...
- On the floor!

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)
Count em

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I'm caught in between
Count em
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin' down with 3P
Everybody loves (oh)
Count em

    When I first heard it, I couldn't understand a word she was saying, so I looked up the lyrics. It's pretty obvious that the song is about a threesome, so I'm guessing she's "Mary" and Peter and Paul are the two other guys. Pretty straight forward song. I don't really like it as much as her others, but it's alright. Her voice is too high for my liking, leave the C notes to Mariah, Britney. Stick to what made you famous:]

    The song is obviously about her love (and solicitations) of MFM threesomes.

    But the part I'm trying to decipher is: "Got one eighty degrees."

    The most likely way to throw 180 degrees into a threesome is to 69. So either she's crowning somebody while going laying on top of a guy while going to down on him and the other Johnson, or...she's full 69'ing while the 2nd dude is filling her up from above. Problem for the bottom dude is that, while bottom dude is making a meal out of her carpet, top dude's sac is brushing up along his forehead, eyes, and nose (and maybe lips). Over and over and over. I guess it's good for Britney, but bottom dude might start to feel like a cheese grater to a carrot and pair of pearl onions.

    And then if there's a creampie involved...I just hope bottom dude is open-minded.

    Wow numerology person. You might wanna shut the front door before the bugs start making your house into an airport. Also, you might be confusing harvard with harveys. Alot of overweight kids go there with their friends for lunch. The only thing they ever dissected was a burger and fries combo. LMFAO if we wanted stuff to make sense we could just travel to space in a box labeled "showtime at the apollo", then call our grandmother tell her to publish her story of a waterfall at the base of a lighthouse, so your family wouldn't suffer from "periodic paralysis" when conducting research regarding the rarity of "black diamond beetles". Or we could just go out and enjoy our days and thank the man upstairs for allowing us to be who we really are.

    I think that the meaning oof this song is that we have to appreciate the number 3. I am a numerologist that went to harvord school and graduated really fast and left to jack in the box. So I went to space and nobody ever talks about how beautful 3 looks today, even if 3 doesn't. And I appreciate what britney is doing by publicating that this song is very important as well as the number 3. Because without 3, we wouldnt have 4 or 5 % qtips. As I tested the blood samples of 3 with my associates peter, paul, and mary. It was negative B. Exactly! The three of them helped me out! See? 3 is useful in life! Anyways, when we were testing and dissecting the number 3, 3 pushed us to the grgound! On the floor! 3 said "i don't like company. Let's just do it you and me. " sowhat we did was totally innocent, everybody loves raymond.
    Sincerely proffesor # 3 suhm.

    It isn't right for someone to sing such disgusting things in a song and have people who applaud them. (I know Britney isn't the first and only person to sing about explicit things but the fact that she says it is ok and the new thing makes it so much more worse, the fact that she says to live in sin is ok) I don't think that she has come a long way from her shaving days but has actually sunk further. I give this song 2 thumbs down, I don't care how catchy the tune is, this song is repulsive.
