It also continued offering fan favorite Kate McKinnon an opportunity to show off her comedic chops.  And, though it did not arm her with excesses of humorous material, it did provide Miley Cyrus a platform for positioning herself as both likable and musical.<\/p>\n<p>But reaction to all of those efforts pales in comparison to that for its &#8220;We Did Stop (the government)&#8221; video.  A parody of the government shutdown set to Cyrus&#8217; hit &#8220;We Can&#8217;t Stop,&#8221; the sketch, making direct reference to the original song&#8217;s video, featured Killam as John Boehner and Cyrus as Michele Bachmann.  Both, particularly Killam, replicated the original video&#8217;s infamous, sexual images.<\/p>\n<p>As &#8220;We Did Stop&#8221; was designed as a clear attempt to generate viral buzz, NBC was predictably quick to fuel online conversation.  It quickly shared the music video and lyrics; both are featured below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nbc.com\/assets\/video\/widget\/widget.html?vid=n41624\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>It\u2019s our party<\/p>\n<p>We can do what we want<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s our party<\/p>\n<p>We can say what we want<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s our party<\/p>\n<p>We can stop what we want<\/p>\n<p>We can vote how we want<\/p>\n<p>Defund what we want<\/p>\n<p>Red states and sweaty bodies everywhere<\/p>\n<p>Bill\u2019s in the house like we don\u2019t care<\/p>\n<p>\u2018cause we came to shut it all down now<\/p>\n<p>No government around now<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not ready for health care<\/p>\n<p>Can I get a \u201cHELL, NO!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Cause we\u2019re gonna keep it out shut down<\/p>\n<p>D.C.is a closed town all-round<\/p>\n<p>So la da di da di<\/p>\n<p>Republican Party<\/p>\n<p>Repping G.O.P.<\/p>\n<p>Doing whatever we want<\/p>\n<p>This is our house<\/p>\n<p>This is our rules<\/p>\n<p>And we did stop (the government)<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, we did stop (shut it down)<\/p>\n<p>Can\u2019t you see it\u2019s we<\/p>\n<p>Who are right?<\/p>\n<p>Can\u2019t you see it\u2019s we<\/p>\n<p>Who \u2018bout that life?<\/p>\n<p>To my government workers on the furlough<\/p>\n<p>Even though you\u2019re already paid low<\/p>\n<p>Remember only God can judge us<\/p>\n<p>Forget the haters \u2018cause somebody elected us<\/p>\n<p>And everyone in line for early childcare<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who planned to see a grizzly bear<\/p>\n<p>We are all shut down here<\/p>\n<p>Getting so shut down, yeah, yeah<\/p>\n<p>So la da di da di<\/p>\n<p>Republican Party<\/p>\n<p>Repping G.O.P.<\/p>\n<p>Doing whatever we want<\/p>\n<p>This is our house<\/p>\n<p>This is our rules<\/p>\n<p>And we did stop<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, we did stop<\/p>\n<p>Can\u2019t you see it\u2019s we<\/p>\n<p>Who are the right?<\/p>\n<p>Can\u2019t you see it\u2019s we<\/p>\n<p>Who \u2018bout that life?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s our party<\/p>\n<p>We can do what we want<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s our party<\/p>\n<p>We can say what we want<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s our party<\/p>\n<p>We can stop what we want<\/p>\n<p>We can vote how we want<\/p>\n<p>Defund what we want<\/p>\n<p>Shut it down.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[176,116,180,932,428,930],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>SNL Quickly Releases Video, Lyrics for &quot;We Did Stop&quot; with Miley Cyrus<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"This weekend&#039;s &quot;Saturday Night Live&quot; seemed to successfully achieve some key objectives.
