[Verse 1: Yakko]
You see
Taxies are Ubers, the stars are YouTubers
Neil Tyson gave Pluto the axe
Cell phones got smarter, the oceans got hotter
The global economy collapsed

[Verse 2: Yakko]
We get internet deals on our hyphenate meals
Like cage-free, vegan-paleo sausage
We don't leave our homes thanks to Amazon drones
They track what we do through our watches

[Chorus: Yakko, Wakko, and Dot]
What's going on? Will we be okay?
Has it all gonе mad since we went away?
Oh, updatе us, please, then put us at ease
'Cause we've run out of jokes
About the '90s

[Verse 3: Yakko]
Al Gore lost bad 'cause of one hanging chad
Dubya hunted for WMDs
Obama brought hope, so Clinton thought, "Dope!
2016 should be a real breeze!"
[Spoken: Yakko, Dot]
So Hillary finally broke that glass ceiling?
No, but it certainly does feel like it's raining shards of glass all around us!

[Verse 4: Yakko]
The country's cut into two, the red and the blue
Facebook's a toxic waste-dump
The Fox Friends are doting, the Russians are voting
And now there's a President Trum–

[Spoken: Yakko, Wakko, Dot]
At least we think there's still a President Trump. You see, the writers are writing this in 2018
How is that possible? The people rely on Animaniacs for outrageous and relevant content!
Well, how can we finish catching up if we don't know what happened in the last two years?
I don't know, wild guesses?
Sounds good to me!

[Verse 5: Yakko, Wakko]
We have chips in our brains, we no longer feel pain
There are worsening climate disasters
Now we live underground, and we can't make a sound
Lest we anger our polar bear masters
(They've come south for revenge!)

[Verse 6: Dot]
We breed birds without arms on our factory farms
And we live in aluminum bunkers
We sent humans to Mars
All the food comes in bars
And the top-rated show is called Clunkers!
[Spoken: Yakko, Wakko, Dot, Clunko]
It's about a talking police car
Who's also a time machine
Wow, here comes the star, Clunko!
I travel through time, solving crime!

[Chorus: Yakko, Wakko, and Dot]
That's what's going on in the world today
It's as crazy now as when we went away
Our ratings depend on knowing the trends
We're all caught up, that's how this song ends!
