This video made me laugh so hard that I might not be as angry next time I get my large bill from Denver Water…

Employees at Denver’s water department did a Backstreet Boys parody about water conservation. And for what it is, they nailed it.

It’s the song “I Want It That Way” but with lyrics like “Tell me why / Don’t water in the daytime.”

Extra props to the girl who’s in it for her spot-on Kevin Richardson goatee.

It even caught the attention of the actual Backstreet Boys who said, “You guys NAILED this,” as they responded to the nearly four-minute video on Denver Water’s Instagram.
