I COULD
WHILE AWAY
THE HOURS
CONFERRIN'
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 ANY INDIVID'L
IN TROUBLE OR IN PAIN
WITH THE THOUGHTS
I'D BE THINKIN'
I COULD BE
ANOTHER LINCOLN
IF I ONLY HAD A BRAIN
OH I
COULD TELL YOU WHY
THE OCEAN'S
NEAR THE SHORE
I COULD THINK
OF THINGS
I 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
AND PERHAPS
I'D DESERVE YA
AND BE EVEN
WORTHY OF YA
IF I ONLY HAD A BRAIN
WHEN A MAN'S
AN EMPTY KETTLE
HE SHOULD BE
ON HIS METTLE
AND YET
I'M TORN APART
JUST BECAUSE
I'M PRESUMIN' THAT
I COULD BE
KINDA HUMAN
IF I ONLY
HAD A HEART
I'D BE TENDER
I'D BE GENTLE
AND AWFUL
SENTIMENTAL
REGARDING
LOVE AND ART
I'D BE FRIENDS
WITH THE SPARROWS
AND THE BOY
THAT SHOOTS
THE ARROWS
IF I ONLY
HAD A HEART
PICTURE ME
A BALCONY
ABOVE A VOICE
SINGS SO LOW
WHEREFORE
ART THOU
ROMEO
I HEAR A BEAT
HOW SWEET
I WOULD
REGISTER EMOTION
JEALOUSY
DEVOTION
AND REALLY
FEEL THE PART
I WOULD
STAY YOUNG
AND CHIPPER
AND I'D LOCK IT
WITH A ZIPPER
IF I ONLY
HAD A HEART
GEE IT'S SAD
BELIEVE ME MISSY
WHEN YOU'RE
BORN TO BE
A SISSY
WITHOUT THE VIM
AND VERVE
BUT I COULD
CHANGE MY HABITS
NEVERMORE BE
SCARED OF RABBITS
IF I ONLY
HAD THE NERVE
I'M AFRAID
THERE'S NO DENYIN'
I'M JUST A
DANDELION
A FATE I DON'T DESERVE
BUT I COULD
SHOW MY PROWESS
BE A LION
NOT A MOU-ESS
IF I ONLY
HAD THE NERVE
OH I'D
BE IN MY STRIDE
A KING DOWN
TO THE CORE
OH I'D ROAR
THE WAY
I NEVER
ROARED BEFORE
AND THEN I'D WOOF
AND ROAR SOME MORE
WOOF
I WOULD SHOW
THE DINOSAURUS
WHO'S KING
AROUND THE FORES'
A KING
THEY'D BETTER SERVE
WHY WITH
MY REGAL BEEZER
I COULD BE
ANOTHER CAESAR
IF I ONLY
HAD THE NERVE
