SCARECROW:
I could while away the hours,
Conferring with the flowers,
Consulting with the rain.
And me head I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin',
If I only had a brain.
I'd unravel any riddle
For any individ'l
In trouble or in pain.
With the thoughts you'd 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 dingaderry,
If I only had a brain.
TIN MAN:
When a man's an empty kettle,
He should be on his metal,
And yet I'm torn apart.
Just because I'm presumin'
That I could be kinda human,
If I only had a heart.
I'd be tender, I'd be gentle,
And oh, so sentimental,
Regarding love and art.
I'd be friends with the sparrows
And the boy who shoots the arrows,
If I only had a heart.
Picture me, a blacony,
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.
LION:
Yes, it's sad believin', missy,
That you're born to be a sissy,
Without the vim and virm.
But I could show my prowess,
Be a lion, not a mowess,
If I only had the nerve.
I'm afraid there's no denyin'
I'm just a dandy lion,
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.
Then I'm sure to get a brain-- a heart-- a home-- the nerve.
