Lyric - Poker Face (Lady GaGa, 2008)

Poker Face
Written and Performed by Lady GaGa
Streamline, Kon Live, Interscope, Cherrytree, 2008

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,
And after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
[Chorus:]
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(He's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She's got me like nobody)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you're with me
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby when it's love, if its not rough it isn't fun......
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
I want you to know
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
[Repeat Chorus:]
Woh, oh, oh, oh
Oh-woh-oh-oh-oh
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
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 am marvelous
So marvelous, I'm marvelous
So marvelous, so marvelous
Can't ready my, can't read my
He can't ready my Poker Face

Lyric - "Alone" (Heart, 1987)

Alone
Composed by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly
Performed by Heart (Ann and Nancy Wilson et al)
Album: Bad Animals
Capitol, May 16, 1987

(The song first appeared on via Steinberg and Kelly's pet project, 1983's I-Ten, "Taking a Cold Look." It was later recorded by John Stamos in his role as Gino Minelli, on the original soundtrack of the CBS sitcom Dreams in 1984. American rock band Heart made it a hit in 1987. Twenty years later, CĂ©line Dion recorded it for her album Taking Chances.)



I hear the ticking of the clock
I'm lying here, the room's pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
No answer on the telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won't end though
Alone

[CHORUS]
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone

You don't know how long I have wanted 
to touch your lips and hold you tight
You don't know how long I have waited
and I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own
and my love for you is still unknown
Alone

[CHORUS]

Alone
Alone
