I was drinking coffee, Minnesota cold
Scrolling past the things I’m told
Smiling anchors, tidy suits
Saying trust us, chasing loops

Daycare signs on every block
Kids on paper, clocks don’t clock
Money moving, no one asks
Too much noise, not enough facts

They said the system’s built on care
But the doors were wide, nobody there
Low bars, fast checks, don’t look back
If it works, don’t audit that

And they said
Nothing to see here, move along
If it’s messy, it won’t last long
Turn the page, hum the song
Nothing to see here, nothing wrong

Nothing to see here, trust the screen
If it mattered, it’d be on at six-fifteen
Smile, repeat, stay serene
Nothing to see here, nothing mean

Then a guy with a camera, nothing fancy
Just hit record, told it plainly
Said this feels off, followed the trail
Turns out the receipts don’t fail

Nick Shirley didn’t break the law
He just looked where no one saw
Same old files, same old news
Funny what a lens can do

Governor smiles, says it’s complex
Long history, many steps
Cracking down, year by year
Funny how the cracks stay here

Walz says trust the process, please
But the process leaked with ease
If it’s broken this long and this wide
That’s not missed, that’s implied

And they sang
Nothing to see here, move along
If it’s awkward, change the song
Lower the lights, soften the wrong
Nothing to see here, nothing wrong

Nothing to see here, calm and slow
Careful where the questions go
Don’t pull threads, don’t overload
Nothing to see here, status quo

And the media hummed a lullaby
Softened words, let questions slide
Called it nuance, called it care
Called it risky to be unfair

But silence isn’t neutral ground
It’s just quiet when money’s loud
If billions walk and no one speaks
That’s not bias, that’s asleep

Citizen clicks at half past ten
Laptop glow, truth slips in
Not polished, not approved
But facts don’t need permission to move

If the press had done this early
Asked the hard things clearly, firmly
No viral clips, no sudden freeze
No families caught between

So now it’s
Nothing to see here, funny how
Everybody sees it now
Lights come on, masks come down
Nothing to see here, not anymore now

Nothing to see here was the line
Till the people crossed it fine
Not clean, not neat, not dressed for air
But someone finally went there

And maybe that’s the bitter truth
Not who spoke, but who stayed mute
When the Fourth Estate looked away
The people filled the verse that day
