House Democrats on Thursday had a simple message for vulnerable Republicans who voted to repeal and replace Obamacare.

Democratic lawmakers sang “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye,” by rock group Steam, after House Republicans voted to pass the latest iteration of their repeal bill.

Republicans did the same to Democrats in the House after they voted in 1993 to pass President Bill Clinton’s tax increase measure. A year later, Republicans in the midterm elections took control of both houses of Congress for the first time since 1954.
