Three Dressed Up As A Nine Lyrics
Hey wait a minute
Who do you think you are?
Comin' on, comin' on
Like you're some kind of movie star
Wearing twelve hundre dollars
D'ecollet'e
You looked a whole lot better to me
From twenty feet away
You're just a 3 dressed up as a 9
You're only, wastin' my time
A 3 dressed up as a 9, hey yeah ...
(All dressed up but you're only a 3, a 3 dressed up as a 9)
Socially
You know you fit in just right
But as for me
I'm gonna have to pass tonight
Well you can say what you like
Be what you wanna be
You can suit yourself, baby
But you don't suit me
You're just a 3 dressed up as a 9
You're only, wastin' my time
A 3 dressed up as a 9, hey yeah
(All dressed up but you're only a 3, a 3 dressed up as a 9)
Hey wait a minute
Who do you think you are
Comin' on, comin' on
Just like you're some kinda movie star
Well you can say what you like
Be what you wanna be
You can suit yourself baby
But you don't suit me
You're just a 3 dressed up as a 9
You're only, wastin' my time
A 3 dressed up as a 9, hey yeah
Who do you think you are?
Comin' on, comin' on
Like you're some kind of movie star
D'ecollet'e
You looked a whole lot better to me
From twenty feet away
You're only, wastin' my time
A 3 dressed up as a 9, hey yeah ...
(All dressed up but you're only a 3, a 3 dressed up as a 9)
You know you fit in just right
But as for me
I'm gonna have to pass tonight
Be what you wanna be
You can suit yourself, baby
But you don't suit me
You're only, wastin' my time
A 3 dressed up as a 9, hey yeah
(All dressed up but you're only a 3, a 3 dressed up as a 9)
Who do you think you are
Comin' on, comin' on
Just like you're some kinda movie star
Be what you wanna be
You can suit yourself baby
But you don't suit me
You're only, wastin' my time
A 3 dressed up as a 9, hey yeah

i love this song
This song clearly is about someone who (in some unknown manner) is trying to make themselves seem better/more important than other people.
That is, the person is NOT actually better/more important than anyone else, but is falsely acting like they are.
I love this song because a lot of people in my life are "threes dressed up as nines"...what teenager doesn't know someone like this?
Smart song!
