Suppose I accidentally got my shit together 
Would I get a medal? 
Or a pat on the back and a little feather 
I could stick in my cap or pin it to my shirt 
Go out in the yard and poke it in the dirt 
Or leave it in the woods where it couldn't be found 
If it fell over, would it make a sound? 
And if it did, would it be the sound that you like? 
Or should I do it over until I get it right? 
  
You say everything I know is wrong 
So do me a favor, and play along for a minute 
As the rusty gears turn 
Don't be alarmed if you smell something burning upstairs 
It's a little BB rolling around in a box car 
See us together 
  
Maybe it wouldn't be hard to explain 
If I only had a brain 
  
(chorus) 
Somewhere on a higher mental plain 
{Somewhere On A Higher mental plain} 
I might learn to come in from the rain 
{I might learn to come in from the rain} 
If I had a clue would I still be here with you? 
{If I had a clue would I still be here with you?} 
Gee whiz, if I only had a brain 
{Gee Whiz, If I only had a brain} 
  
Who's that?  
Oh, my little friend cupid 
Wearing a shirt that says I'm with stupid 
Always nearby wherever I go 
He's looking out for me, don't you know 
  
Mr. excitement, never in a rut 
Johnny on the spot with an arrow in the butt 
Ouch! I guess your love is true 
Now, if I could only get a clue 
  
(chorus) 
Had A Brain 
Had a brain 
had a brain 
had a brain
