I'd Like to Teach the World to Think

Lyric copyright by Dennis Pearl
May sing to the tune of "I'd like to teach the world to sing" (The New Seekers)

I'd like to build the world a school
for students who just love
to know frequencies and m.l.e.'s
and stuff statistics solves

I'd like to teach the world to think
with probability
and know to hold the null as fixed
in calculating p

I'd like to see the world for once
all basing things on facts
and hear them try to gather more
and find what data lacks
(that'll make it clear)

I'd like to teach the world to think
of reliability

I'd like to teach the world to think
with probability

I'd like to build the world a school
for students who just love
to know frequencies and m.l.e.'s
and stuff statistics solves

I'd like to teach the world to think
with probability
and know to hold the null as fixed
in calculating p
