The finished track is playing back
The music has been made
Engineer adjusts controls
Which mix and match, phase and fade

Journalist is free to ask 
Any question in his head 
But the answer has been edited 
Before a word is said

Reality in disguise 
Propaganda's everywhere 
Mingling truth and lies

Make-up girl makes up the face 
That looks out from the screen 
Carefully selected stills of the star 
Make the cover of a magazine
