If I Only Had a Brain

I would while away the hours
Conferin’ with the flowers
Consultin’ with the rain
And my head I’d be scratchin’
While my thoughts were busy hatchin’
If I only had a brain.

I’d unravel every riddle,
For every individle,
In trouble or in pain.
With the thoughts you could be thinkin’,
you could be another lincoln,
If you only had a brain.

Oh i-- could tell you why,
The ocean’s near the shore.
I could think of things I never thought before,
Then I’d sit-- and think some more.

I would not be just a nothin’,
My head all full of stuffin’,
My heart all full of pain.
I would dance and by merry,
Life would be a dingle derry,
If I only had a brain.
