Lyrics The Whitlams

The Whitlams

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'

As my thoughts were busy hatchin'

If I only had a brain

I'd unravel ev'ry riddle

For every individ'le

In trouble or in pain

In my head 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'd never thunk before

Then I'd sit, and think some more

Oh I could tell you why

The ocean's near the shore

I could think of things I'd never thunk before

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

And perhaps I'd deserve you

And be even worthy of you

If I only had a brain
