If I Only Had a Brain
Unraveling Life's Riddles: If I Only Had a Brain
Lyrics
I would while away the hours
I would spend my time idly
Conferin' with the flowers
Talking with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
Seeking advice from the rain
And my head I'd be scratchin'
Contemplating deeply
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
Generating thoughts or ideas
If I only had a brain.
If only I possessed intelligence
I'd unravel every riddle,
Solving every puzzle or mystery
For every individle,
For each individual
In trouble or in pain.
Experiencing trouble or suffering
With the thoughts you could be thinkin',
Considering the potential thoughts
You could be another lincoln,
Becoming a noteworthy figure like Lincoln
If you only had a brain.
If only possessing intelligence
Oh I, could tell you why,
Expressing a desire to explain
The ocean's near the shore.
The proximity of the ocean to the shore
I could think of things I never thought before,
Generating new thoughts and ideas
Then I'd sit, and think some more.
Contemplating and reflecting further
I would not be just a nothin',
Desiring to be more than insignificant
My head all full of stuffin',
Having a mind filled with thoughts
My heart all full of pain.
Experiencing emotional pain
I would dance and by merry,
Yearning for joy and happiness
Life would be a dingle derry,
Life would be carefree and happy
If I only had a brain.
If only possessing intelligence
Oh I could tell you why
Reiteration of the desire to explain
The ocean's near the shore.
Repeating the proximity of the ocean to the shore
I could think of things I never thought before
Continued generation of new thoughts
And then I'd sit, and think some more.
Continuing to contemplate and reflect
I would not be just a nothin',
Desiring to be more than insignificant
My head all full of stuffin',
Having a mind filled with thoughts
My heart all full of pain.
Experiencing emotional pain
I would dance and by merry,
Yearning for joy and happiness
Life would be a dingle derry,
Life would be carefree and happy
If I only had a brain.
If only possessing intelligence
