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
