Watch Utah lawmakers completely embarrass themselves rapping to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song

Schoolhouse Rock is so 1976. Apropos of nothing, the hip Utah House of Representatives set out to explain "how a law is made ... with a surprise twist," and in doing so they inexplicably forced a couple rhymes to The Fresh Prince of of Bel-Air theme song. "Share so all your friends can know how laws are made!" they optimistically tweeted.

One thing is for sure: It really is surprising! You have to give some of the lawmakers props for getting really, really into it:

Still, it might not be fair to call this much of an "update" to the classic "I'm Just a Bill," seeing as The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was canceled in 1996. Then again, at least this means we were all spared an explanation of the legislative process set to "Bodak Yellow." Watch the entire video below. Jeva Lange
