Apparently I was not aware that Lady Gaga's song "Poker Face" has a clean radio edit. This is because the line, "P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face" is misheard as, "P-p-p-poker face, p-p-f**k her face" on the album version.

Apparently some radio stations repeated the word "poker" from the first part of the line, while others played the original CD version. Discogs shows a promotional CD single is available containing both of these versions. The edited version is available on the compilation Now 31 in the US. I fixed this in my collection to note a clean and explicit version. The database should be updated to reflect the same.

Add this to the list of clean/explicit edits that I was not aware of and had no idea about!

Thanks for the tip, Rich. I bought the edited version on
Amazon since Prime Cuts has the album version.

No need, it is on the NOW series just let know if you don't already have it.
