Description
4th track of the album, a Prince sounding song. A track very reminiscent to Timbaland's, Justin Timberlake's and 90s Michael Jackson's work.
Propaganda (Acoustic version)
The alternate reality version of the song makes some features more clear to hear, in the chorus there's the voice of a girl singing ah's and in the 'propaganda' loop a woman can be heard screaming.
Live
A short 30 second clip of the song was played to the studio audience at the taping of Taratata.

Lyrics
Propaganda, propaganda, propaganda, propaganda.
Floozy You got me trapped in a dark fantasy world Don't you know you make me woozy You have me wrapped around your little finger
Baby, don't you know you can't lose You make me offers that I can't refuse You keep telling pretty lies You toy with the truth Oh you're killing me with your Propaganda, propaganda, propaganda, propaganda.
Cold chick You ate my soul like a death eater I'm the ocean you're an oil slick Now I'm choking on your thought pollution
Baby don't you know you can't lose You make me offers that I can't refuse You keep telling pretty lies You toy with the truth Oh you’re killing me with your Propaganda, propaganda, propaganda, propaganda.
(Guitar solo)
You can't lose You make me offers that I can't refuse You keep telling pretty lies, babe Baby, don't you know you can't lose You make me offers that I can't refuse, yeah You contort me with your lies, baby Don't you know that you just can't lose You make me offers that I can't refuse, yeah You keep telling pretty lies You play with truth Oh you're killing me with your Propaganda
