Propaganda
Fact Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey Conchita, Lady with the blood shot eyes (rep many times)

Die Kubaner - so flink
Der CIA - so link
Der weiße Mann entbehrlich,
denn der Stamm der Roten mittlerweile ungefährlich

Im weißen Hause Turbulenz

die Völker ignorieren a jede Grenz'
So hat's Havanna wieder wirklich schwer
vorm Palazzo zeigt der Ami sein Gewehr -
her - yeah!

Oh, Generalissimo
what're you gonna do with your one-man-show?

Was nützt die allerbeste Propaganda
was nützt die beste Propaganda?
Zu viele Häuptlinge, zu viele Häuptlinge
und kane Indianer - trotz Propaganda

Der neue Sheriff so integer
im Haus der Damen, da kennt ihn jeder,
denn Männer des Westens wollen das eine:
Hüften, Lippen, schlankeste Gebeine

Auch Conchita kommt ins Reine
geht's um harte Dollars nimmt sie seine
Die Stunde spielt ihr ins Budget
denn was den Indianer mordet
tut dem Häutling net amoi weh

Oh, Generalissimo
What're you gonna do with your one-man-show?
Was nützt die allerbeste Propaganda ... (2 times)
tell me what're you gonna do now

Insulana bin i kana
Amerikana werd' ich a mehr kana werd'n (rep many times)

Was nützt die allerbeste Propaganda ... (2 times)
tell me what're you gonna do now - Propaganda

Overall Meaning

The song "Propaganda" by Fact is a politically charged and critical piece, taking aim at the manipulative tactics of the media and powerful governments. The repeated reference to "Conchita" with bloodshot eyes could be interpreted as a symbol of the common people, struggling and blinded by the constant stream of propaganda that bombards them from all directions. The lyrics then go on to criticize the CIA and the white man, suggesting that their power is becoming obsolete as the red man (or indigenous people) become less of a threat. The chaos in the white house and the disregard for international borders is causing difficulty for Havana, with the Americans displaying their weapons outside the palace. The lyrics also reference a one-man-show by Generalissimo, possibly criticising leaders who operate with absolute authority and lack accountability. The chorus repeats the question, "What are you gonna do with your one-man-show?" before ultimately concluding that too many chiefs and too much propaganda leaves the Indians (or common people) with no voice.
