[Verse 1]
Well we're going to, yeah we're going to
Get it right this time
We're going to really going to
Raise it to the sky
People are ready to forgive a few mistakes
But let's get started, form a party
Don't you know how long it takes

[Chorus]
C'mon people let the fun begin
We've got a future and it's rushing in
Call all the minstrels from the ancient shrine
Pass down the message that it's right this time

[Verse 2]
Well I'm trying to, yeah I'm crying to
Lay it on the line
We're trying to, really dying to
Get it right this time
So many yearning for the way it's gonna be
Believe it when you see it happening to you
You know it's real

[Chorus]
C'mon people let the world begin
We've got a future and it's charging in
We'll make the best of all we have, and more
We'll do what never has been done before

[Bridge]
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 3]
Well I'm going to, yeah I'm going to
Get it right this time
I'm going to, really going to
Raise it to the sky
I must admit I may have made a few mistakes
But let's get started, form a party
Don't you know how long it takes

[Chorus]
So c'mon people let the fun begin
We've got a future and it's rushing in
Call all the minstrels from the ancient shrine
Pass down the message that it's right this time

[Bridge]
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah

[Outro]
C'mon people let the world begin
We've got a future and it's charging in
Now c'mon people
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon people
Yeah c'mon people

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
