Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lady Gaga's "Government Hooker" are highly suggestive, and they seem to explore themes of submission and domination, as well as gender and power. Gaga sings that she can be whatever her lover wants her to be, whether that's "good" or "cool," a man or a woman, a mother or a father. She describes herself as a "hooker" and demands that her lover follow her commands, telling him to "back up and turn around" and "put your hands on the ground." The repeated refrain of "Hooker, yeah, you're my hooker, government hooker" emphasizes her submissive role and her willingness to do whatever it takes to please her lover.


The second half of the song takes a darker turn as Gaga sings about drinking her tears and crying because she knows her lover loves her. She then turns her attention to someone else, telling John F. Kennedy to put his hands on her and promising to make him "squeal" if he pays her. The final lines of the song express a desire to "fuck the government hooker" before demanding that she stop "fucking" Gaga.


Overall, "Government Hooker" is a provocative and provocative song that explores themes of power, submission, and gender roles. It's open to interpretation, but it seems to suggest that even the most powerful people can be brought to their knees by love and desire.

Fun fact: the male voice in the background is from Lady Gaga’s Bodyguard Peter Van De Vaan. Gaga liked his Dutch accent that’s why she used his voice.
