words: mic wright – @brokenbottleboy

‘jolene’ and ‘i will always love you’
born on the same day
5,000 songs birthed the same way
and all you can say is
blonde hair and tits, had a few hits

thousands of books to kids that need them
schemes to keep them safe and feed them
when the system didn’t care
dolly did what she could and freed them

it costs a lot to look this cheap
it takes a lot to live with such clarity
to take your riches and turn them
into acts of selfless charity

so make your cracks about a karaoke song
and warbling the whitney version
but all your jokes are wrong
dolly parton is a saint
and it’s time for your conversion
