IF I ONLY HAD MY BRAINS

 

Based on “If I Only Had A Brain” written by Edgar Harburg and Harold Arlen
 
I’ve been working for twelve hours
 Surviving sputum showers
To neb percuss and drain
Now it’s time for reportin’
But to guessing I’m resortin’
‘Cuz I haven’t got my brains

To sit and try to remember
Is a real mind bender
It’s driving me insane
And it’s so darn frustratin’
I’m reduced to estimatin’
‘Cuz I haven’t got my brains

Oh why why didn’t I
Fill out my cards before
Was that cannula on three or was it four
I guess I’ll sit and guess some more

I’m so glad my shift’s completed
And that I have repeated
The facts I could retain
But tomorrow I’m hopin’
I’m not sitting here and mopin’
‘Cuz I’m gonna have my brains
