No one ever lived a thousand years   Not like things we do or say   Some of those who really changed this world   We would welcome back today   They could really light the way      So call up Otis   Call up Marvin   Call for Buddy   Bring them on      Call for Ludwig   And for Johann   We need Lennon   We mean John      Words live longer than a thousand years   Listen hard to what they say   Single voices that would change this world   We would welcome back today   They would really light the way      So call up Jimi   Let's have Stevie   Look for Miles   To take the floor      Call for Billie   Yell for Ella   Call up Elvis   We'll need more      So call up Einstein   Bring back Darwin   Call for Newton   And Luther King      We need Gandhi   Call Da Vinci   Call for Jesus   And ask Him in      If we live another thousand years   Who could help along the way?   Some of those who came and changed this world   We would welcome back today   They would really light the way      So call up Garbo   Let's have Mansfield   Maybe Monroe   No, she's for sure      Call Sinatra   Come on Crosby   Is that Bogie   At the door?      Bring on Bergman   How about Dietrich?   Let's have James Dean   Leave the car      Call Picasso   We need Monet   Let's have Rembrandt   And Renoir      Call up Groucho   Come on Gable   Bring on Hitchcock   And let's get wilde      Come on Gershwin   Let's call Porter   Maybe Duke   Could show some style      Call up Shakespeare   Bring on Byron   We need Shelley   And maybe Keats      Come on Wordsworth   Bring on Browning   Robert Burns
