"What follows is the most honest, yet fun, take on what is going on in the minds of young women and men who have been stuck inside for a whole year and the mental health ramifications that comes with it," says Lyra Hale of the pandemic-themed SNL music video that premiered on last week's episode. "Yes, we’re super comfy in our robes, fluffy pajama bottoms, and messy buns. And yes, we might have baked too much bread while watching Tiger King and attending too many Zoom meetings. That doesn’t mean we want to be called out and attacked like this. We’re a little delicate and tired of the monotony, people! Mental health is at the core of this song for a reason, and it’s because we’re all suffering through the effects of stagnating with no end in sight, our seemingly only escape being a catchy song that gently teases about our worries and makes us feel accepted at the same time."
