Brain

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'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 nothin'

my head all full of stuffin'

My heart all full of pain.

I would dance and be merry

life would be a ding-a-derry,

If I only had a brain.

Heart (I sang this bit)

When a girl's an empty kettle

she should be on her mettle,

And yet I'm torn apart.

Just because I'm presumin'

that I could be kind-a-human,

If I only had 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 boys who shoots the arrows

If I only had a heart.

Picture me - a balcony. With a voice singing 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.

Nerve

Yeh, 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

Never more be scared of rabbits

If I only had the nerve

I'm afraid there's no denying

I'm just a dandy-lion

A fate I don't deserve

But I could show my prowess

Be a lion, not a mo-usesse

If I only had the nerve

Oh I'd be in my stride

A king down to the core

Oh I roar the way I never roared before

And then I'd rrwuff

And roar some more

I would show the dinosaurus

Who's king around the forus

A king they'd better serve

And with my regal beezer

I could be another ceaser

If I only had the nerve
