[Verse] Well, they paint her like a hero in a small-town parade, But she ain't got no policies to make the grade. All the papers and the screens play their favorite song, While we're left wondering where it all went wrong. [Verse 2] She's smiling, waving, but her plans are thin, Riding on the coattails of the latest spin. They cheer and they holler, can't you hear the sound? Blind to the fact that there's no substance found. [Chorus] Kamala, they've got their blinders on, Chasing shadows 'till the break of dawn. Love at first sight can be so cruel, Blinded by the spotlight, like a high school fool. [Verse 3] She dances on the promises, standing on thin ice, Media’s got their headlines, but they're paying the price. Where’s the backbone? Where’s the fight? She’s running on empty, but they think she’s just right. [Verse 4] You need more than a smile to win this rodeo, Can’t just ride on through with a pretty show. The folks in this town want a leader, strong and true, But all they get on the airwaves is a scripted view. [Chorus] Kamala, they've got their blinders on, Chasing shadows 'till the break of dawn. Love at first sight can be so cruel, Blinded by the spotlight, like a high school fool.
