Robbie Williams

Songwriter: E.Y. Harburg Harold Arlen

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
Perhaps I'd deserve you
And be even worthy of you
If I only had a 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
If I only had a brain
