[Verse 1] Male: White House pointing fingers, somebody else's turn, blame game started early, watch the whole thing burn, WIRED's calling it out, the script's already set, "it's the president's fault" — that's the quote, don't forget. Female: NPR ran a poll, found the public's clear design, voters want Congress checking power, drawing a line, trust leans toward the Democrats on issues people weigh, that's the temperature reading just one month away. [Chorus] Both: October twenty-second, headlines on replay, blame and ballots tangled on the midterm runway, from the embassy beef to the cash that they chase, news wrapped in a plucky little bassline and space. [Verse 2] Female: Cross the border static, listen to this score, U.S. Embassy's taking umbrage — meaning offense, nothing more — at the Carney government, says they brushed off the claim of potential interference, calling out the name. Male: CTV reports accusations aimed at Canadian ties, politicians meddling under midterm skies, two headlines, one story, told from either side, a diplomatic squabble riding the same tide. [Verse 3] Male: New Statesman's digging, found an ideal so plain, get rich quick's the compass steering policy's lane, pecuniary motives — simply money on the brain — dressed up in the language of the West Wing's domain. Female: Axios dropping details, tension getting tall, White House told Politico: retract it all, or face the consequences, that's the warning they sent, pressure on the press corps, that's the current event. [Bridge] Both: Trump gaggled with reporters, October twenty-one, stepping out the driveway before the day was done, loose words at the gate, cameras catching the sound, every answer he gives gets spun back around. [Verse 4] Female: Al Jazeera asking why these midterms hold such weight, control of the Congress could reroute the president's fate, Male: every seat's a lever, every vote's a key, that's why the whole nation's watching anxiously. [Verse 5] Male: Reuters breaks it down, the money trail runs deep, donors stacking cash while the voters fall asleep, Female: campaign ads cycling, same lines on replay, spin doctors working overtime to shape the day. Male: Every network spinning, every anchor takes a side, truth gets lost in the shuffle of the narrative tide, Female: but the facts keep surfacing, no matter how they try, the twenty-second story's written in the sky. [Chorus] Both: October twenty-second, headlines on replay, blame and ballots tangled on the midterm runway, from the embassy beef to the cash that they chase, news wrapped in a plucky little bassline and space. [Outro] Male: That's the wrap for the twenty-second, served calm and slow, Female: stay tuned for tomorrow's headlines, that's the way it go.
