“It’s our party and we can do what we want.
It’s our party, we can stop what we want.
We can vote how we want, defund what we want…
Yeah, we can do what we want to, we can do what we want to.
It’s our party and we can do what we want.
It’s our party, we can say what we want.
It’s our party we can stop what we want, we can vote how we want, defund what we want…

Red states and sweaty bodies everywhere.
Bills in the house like we don’t care.
‘Cause we came to shut it all down now.
Hey, hey, hey…
No government around now…
If you’re not ready for health care.
Can I get a hell no?
Hell no…
Cause we’re gonna keep it shut down;
D.C. is a post-town all-round.
Hey, hey, hey.
So, la da da dee, Republican Party,
Reppin’ G.O.P., Doin’ whatever we want.

This is our house, this is our rules!
And we did stop… the government.
And we did stop.
Shut that down.
Didn’t you see on the right?
Can you see about that light?
It’s our party and we
can do what we want.
It’s our party and we can say what we want.
It’s our party we can stop what we want, we can vote how we want, defund what we want…

To our government workers on the furlough,
Even though you’re already paid low,
Remember only god can judge ya,
Forget the haters ’cause somebody elected us.
Everyone in line for early child care,
Anyone who planned to see a grizzly bear we are so shut down here, gettin’ so shut down.
Yeah, yeah!
So, la da da dee, Republican Party,
Reppin’ G.O.P., Doin’ whatever we want.

This is our house, this is our rules.
And we did stop… the government.
And we did stop.
Shut that down.
Didn’t you see us squeal on the right?
Can you see us about that fight?
Yeah, yeah.
It’s our party and we can do what we want to.
It’s our house we can vote how we want to.
It’s our floor and we can say what we want to.
It’s our bill we can vote how want to.
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry, IRS…
We can do what we want, we can say what we want to…
Too bad astronaut.
We can do what we want, we can do what we want to.
Shut it down.”
