Lady Gaga - Poker Face

Lady Gaga estudou música na Universidade de Nova Iorque e começou a sua carreira se apresentando em boates e compondo canções para interpretes como Britney Spears. Seu álbum de estreia foi The Fame, lançado em 2008.

A artista buscou as suas referências em David Bowie, Queen, Elton John, Madonna, Michael Jackson e outras lendas da música. Segundo Gaga, a moda também faz parte de sua fonte de inspiração. E que inspiração. Afinal, não é qualquer um que sai por aí vestido de carne crua.

O seu “boom” no mundo da música veio junto ao hit Poker Face. O “cruel” é que depois disso, todas as “caras e bocas” que vemos por aí são “poker faces”, não é mesmo?

Gaga ainda teve uma ajudinha de RedOne para compor "Poker Face", incluída no álbum The Fame . A obra, em sua essência, possui referências entre o jogo e a sensualidade. A canção obteve críticas positivas no âmbito contemporâneo. Além de ter se tornado a música mais ouvida no mundo em 2009.

Poker Face

Mum mum mum mah
Mum mum mum mah

I wanna hold em' like they do in Texas plays, (Ay)
Fold em' let em' hit me, raise it, baby stay with me
(I love it)
Lovegame intuition play the cards with spades to start,
And after he's been hooked,
I'll play the one that's on his heart

Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got

Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)

I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be (Ay)
A little gambling is fun when you're with me
(I love it)
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby when it's love,
if its not rough it isn't fun (fun)

Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, woah, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got

Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)

(Mum mum mum mah)
(Mum mum mum mah)

I won't tell you that I love you
Kiss or hug you
Cause I'm bluffin' with my muffin
I'm not lying
I'm just stunnin'
With my love-glue-gunning (Mah)

Just like a chick in the casino
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, promise this
Check this hand 'cause I'm marvelous

Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)

Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)

Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She got me like nobody)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(She got me like nobody)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
