(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.
