If I Only Had the Nerve / We’re Off to See the Wizard

E. Y. Harburg

Yeh, it's sad, believe me, Missy
When you're born to be a sissy
Without the vim and verve
But I could show my prowess
Be a lion not a mouse
If I only had the nerve

I'm afraid there's no denyin'
I'm just a dandelion
A fate I don't deserve
But I could change my habit's
Never more be scared of rabbit's
If I only had the nerve!

Oh I'd be in my stride
A king down to the core i could roar the way
I've never roared before
And then I'd grrrr and roar some more

I'd show the dinosaurus
Who's king around the forest
A king he better serve
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!

We're off to see the wizard
The wonderful wizard of Oz
We hear he is a wizard of whiz
If ever a wiz there was
If ever oh ever a wiz there was
The wizard of Oz is one because
Because, because, because, because, because
Because of the wonderful things he does
We're off to see the wizard
The wonderful wizard of Oz!
