"The Late Show" with Stephen Colbert created a music video paying homage to the hit Broadway musical "Rent" to reflect on the one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The show changed the lyrics to the song "Seasons of Love" to reflect on the aftermath of the insurrection. The song begins by listing the number of minutes in a common year as "Abhor-Rent" appears onscreen to mimic the musical's logo.
"Five hundred twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes," the song began. "Three hundred sixty-five days since feces were smeared."
"12,000 self-incriminating Instagram pictures. One viking shaman doing three-and-a-half years," it continued, with a mugshot of "QAnon Shaman" Jacob Chansley.
