With the seemingly neverending news cycle of powerful men being busted for sexual harassment, the female cast members of Saturday Night Live created an upbeat pop music video that, in plain detail, describes the hellscape that every woman experiences.

The music is about as bubbly as one could imagine. But the lyrical content is the exact opposite.
