I could while away the hours Conferring with the flowers Consulting with the rain And my head I'd be scratching While my thoughts were busy hatching If I only had a brain..... I'd unravel every riddle for any individual in torture or in pain With the thoughts I'd be thinking I could be another Lincoln If I only had a brain..... Oh I could tell you why the ocean's near the floor I could think of things I'd never thunk before and 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 Then perhaps I'd deserve you and be even worthy of you If I only had a brain....
