If I could build a time machine in my room,
I'd go to 2042, I'll prove to you
The world gets better than we thought it could do
I told you!
There's an affordable machine, generates food
It's in every living room, it tastes good
And every person has a home, it's so simple
Just hold through
Cross my heart and ugly cry
Religiously watch 9 to 5
On my knees I scream her name
Pray for when she saves the day
Dolly Parton, give us money
We're no good, neither's our country
Dolly, you're the business elite
If you don't fix the system, well, it's pretty much your fault
Every sucky job is done by robots
We've established universal living income
You don't even have to work unless you wanna
Just hold through
Cross my heart and ugly cry
Religiously watch 9 to 5
On my knees I scream her name
Pray for when she saves the day
Dolly Parton, give us money
We're no good, neither's our country
Dolly, you're the business elite
If you don't funnel funding, well, we're fumbling, dumb, and crumbling
Wish it was that easy
The world's always been burning
I'm tired of believing
That rich people could care about us
Dolly, though I love you
Future doesn't rest on
The best of your intentions
You're just a single human
Dolly Parton, give us money
We're no good, neither's our country
Dolly, you're the business elite!
If you don't fix the system, well, it's pretty much your fault
