Wizard Of Oz - If I Only Had A Brain/Heart/Nerve lyrics

Brain the scarecrow: 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 you'll be thinkin' You could be another Lincoln If you 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 the tin man: 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 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. Above a voice sings low. Wherefore art thou, Romeo? I hear a beat.... How sweet. Just to register emotion, jealousy - devotion, And really feel the part. I could stay young and chipper And I'd lock it with a zipper, If I only had a heart. _____________________________ The Nerve the cowardly lion: Yeh, it's sad, believe me, Missy, When you're born to be a sissy Without the vim and verve. But I could show my prowess, be a lion not a mou-ess If I only had the nerve. I'm afraid there's no denyin' I'm just a dandelion, A fate I don't deserve. I'd be brave as a blizzard.... I'd be gentle as a lizard.... I'd be clever as a gizzard.... If the Wizard is a Wizard who will serve. All: Then I'm sure to get the scarecrow: a brain, the tin man: a heart, Dorothy: a home, the cowardly lion: the nerve!
