Jackson Browne - If I Only Had A Brain Şarkı Sözleri
Jackson Browne
| Şarkı Sözleri
(from the soundtrack album the wizard of oz in concert: dreams do come true; performed by jackson browne backed by ry cooder & david sanborn)
see, i can´t scare anybody. they come from miles around to laugh in my face and eat in my field.
said a scarecrow swinging on a pole, to some blackbirds sittin´ on a fence, "oh, the lord gave me a soul, but, forgot to give me common sense."
said the blackbirds, "well, well, well. what the thunder would you do with common sense?" said the scarecrow,"would be pleasin´ just to reason out the reason of the wishes and the whyness and the whence"
if i had an once of common sense... (if he had an ounce of common sense)
(well, what would you do scarecrow?")
i would while away the hours conferin´ 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 every individle, 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 thought before, 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 by merry, life would be a dingle derry, if i only had a brain.
if i only had a brain-- (if he only had a brain.)
i could tell you why the ocean´s near the shore. i could think of things i never thought before and then i´d sit-- and think some more.
ya, it would be kind of pleasin´ to reason out the reason, for the things i can´t explain. then perhaps i´d deserve you, and be even worthy of you, if i only had a brain.
i could dance and by merry, life would be a dingle derry, if i only had a brain.
if i only had a brain. (if he only had a brain.)
