Lyrics
Original
Translation
Bilingual
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
ย
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
Call up Einstein
Bring back Darwin
Call for Newton
And Luther King
We need Ghandi
Call DaVinci
Call for Jesus
And ask Him in
ย
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 'bout 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
And H.G. Wells
