The Real Meaning Behind Poker Face By Lady Gaga
Mia Smith Per The Sun, Gaga previously revealed that "Poker Face" doesn't just draw inspiration from sexual experiences, it was also inspired by gambling, which can be heard in the song's lyrics, "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-gunnin' / 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 marvellous" (via Genius).
More than a decade after it's release, "Poker Face" became a viral sensation across social media when some of the track's lesser-known lyrics came to light 13 years after the song's debut. As LadBible reports, the No. 1 hit began trending when some listeners discovered the lyrics "Po-po-po-poker face, po-po-po-poker face (Mum-mum-mum-mah)" actually go "Po-po-po-poker face, fu-fu-f*** her face (Mum-mum-mum-mah)."
After stumbling upon the revelation, one Twitter user wrote, "I'm today years old when I found out the real lyrics to "Poker Face" - childhood ruined," while another fan joked, "Our parents let us sang this song in the car as a kid!"
