The MGM Studio Orchestra - If I Only Had a Brain (unused dance music) Lyrics

Lyrics If I Only Had a Brain (unused dance music) - The MGM Studio Orchestra



I could wile away the hours
Conferring 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'le
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 nuffin'
My head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain
Perhaps I'd deserve you
And be even worthy of you
If I only had a brain



Writer(s): E.y. Harburg, Harold Arlen
