Poker Face Lyrics

Mum mum mum mah (5x)
I wanna hold em' like they do in Texas plays.
Fold em', let em' hit me,
raise it, baby stay with me.

Love game intuition
Play the cards with spades to start

    Poker Face is about many things. Lady Gaga has been asked many times the meaning of this song and she has given several different answers.
    First and foremost, it is obvious that lyrically Poker Face is about sex and gambling; or more specifically, sex, with the use of gambling metaphors.
    On at least one occasion she claimed that the song was about 'how she catches guys'... that 'the second you let guys know you like them, they run away, so you've gotta keep your poker face.'
    However, by far the most interesting interpretation, that Lady Gaga claimed herself in an interview, is that the song is essentially about being bi-curious; she says that 'sometimes, when I was making love to my old boyfriend, I would think about women.' The lyrics 'Bluffin' with my muffin' are metaphorical for 'bluffing' with your vagina. 'I won't tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you'... In these two verses, Gaga is basically saying that she is having sex with men but doesn't feel any emotional attachment for them whatsoever, to the point where she doesn't even feel ashamed to be thinking about women while having sex with a man.
    People assume that, purely because of this song, that Lady Gaga is a 'proven bisexual' or some such. While it matters little to me, all this song really proclaims is the act of being bi-curious. I wouldn't freak out too much about it all.

    I read somewhere that this song is about lady gaga actually being interested in women.. not necessarily a lesbian.. just curious.
    The 'poker face' analogy being that to her boyfriend she obviously looks like she's straight but she's just got a 'poker face' on and is bluffing so that he doesn't find out that she's curious about women.
    I also read that it goes as far as when she's having sex with her boyfriend she's thinking about girls but I don't know if you believe that or not to be honest.

    I saw an interview on Fuse with Lady Gaga stating this song was about her thinking about women whilst having sex with a previous boy friend.

    I think this song is about the excitement it brings to mature people when they perform sex and attends gambling.
    'If it's not rough it isn't fun!'
    This phrase perfectly shows my opinion.

    I always thought it was about her showing a guy her 'Relationship Rules' as I call them. I don't know for sure, but it's still a good song to dance to!^_^
