Lady Gaga的《Poker Face》创作灵感源于她个人的双性恋经历与情感伪装。Gaga在采访中透露，这首歌描述了她在与异性约会时，内心渴望同性恋爱但表面保持冷静的场景。"扑克脸"比喻她隐藏真实情感的游戏策略，避免被对方看透，同时也反映了约会中的权力动态和心理博弈。发行于2008年的这首歌，用扑克术语隐喻情爱博弈，体现了Gaga对双重性别的探索和流行文化中的伪装主题。
歌词解读
"Mum mum mum mah"：节奏性唱词，模拟扑克游戏中的下注或洗牌声音，营造赌博氛围，暗示情感的试探与风险。
"I wanna hold 'em like they do in Texas please / Fold 'em let 'em hit me raise it baby stay with me"：采用德州扑克（Texas Hold'em）术语，"hold 'em"（掌控局面）和"fold 'em"（弃牌）比喻在感情中游刃有余地进退，"hit me raise it"（跟注或加注）象征主动挑逗对方，强调游戏式的恋爱策略。
"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"：以牌术喻情场，"spades"（黑桃牌）代表锐利手段，暗示以直觉开局吸引对方；等对方上钩后，再"play the one that's on his heart"（用心牌击中他内心），揭示情感操控的掌控力。
"I'll get him hot show him what I've got"：展现身体魅力并制造吸引力，保持表面热情但不表露真实意图。
"Can't read my can't read my / No he can't read my poker face / She's got me like nobody"：副歌重复主题，强调"poker face"（扑克脸）的伪装成功，对方无法猜透她的双性渴望；"She's got me like nobody"（她对我的吸引力无人能及）暗指对女性的暗恋。
"I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be / A little gamblin' is fun when you're with me"：延续赌博隐喻，"hard pair"（强力组合）象征表面情侣关系，但"gamblin'"（小赌）提示这段感情只是刺激游戏。
"Russian roulette is not the same without a gun / And baby when it's love if it's not rough it isn't fun"：用俄罗斯轮盘赌比喻爱情的惊险，"without a gun"（没有枪）暗指缺乏真实激情；后句强调爱情需带点"rough"（粗犷感）才有趣，影射BDSM式权力游戏。
"I won't tell you that I love you / Kiss or hug you 'Cause I'm bluffin' with my muffin"：桥段点明伪装核心，"bluffin'"（虚张声势）表达感情欺骗；"with my muffin"（用我的松饼）是双关语，指女性性器官，暗示她一边与男人互动一边幻想女人。
"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"：以赌场比喻，"chick"（女孩）是玩家角色，"take your bank"（卷走你积蓄）/ "pay you out"（支付你）象征情感掠夺；反复"promise"（承诺）和"marvelous"（美妙）讽刺表面甜言蜜语下的胜利炫耀。
