Lady Pank is quite a curiosity on the Polish musical market. They got popular before they were actually... formed! The group, which was originally planning to call itself "Żużel", received a lot of media coverage as a result of a skilfully conducted promotional campaign combined with group's questionnable talent.
Hustler
Lady Pank Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you were a little bolder,
You could be my bitch
If you were a little older,
I could make you rich
If you had a warmer shoulder.
First I turned the switch,
And then I rock and rolled her
Hustler,
I'm just a hustler, I'm just a hustler,
I'm just a hustler.
Did you think I would stay 'til tomorrow ?
Did you think I'd repay what I borrowed ?
You could be my key
If you knew my combination,
You could come with me
If you knew my destination,
I could set you free if you had imagination.
I didn't let her see my cold premeditation.
Hustler,
I'm just a hustler, I'm just a hustler,
I'm just a hustler.
Did you think I would stay 'til tomorrow ?
Did you think I'd repay what I borrowed ?
Did you think I would care
About your sorrow ?
I'm just, I'm just a hustler.
The lyrics to Lady Pank's song "Hustler" depict a person who is looking for someone to use for their own advantage. The singer is a manipulator who sees other people as objects to be exploited. The lyrics suggest that this person is looking for someone who is vulnerable, inexperienced, or naive so that they can easily control them. The singer believes that they can "scratch [their] itch" and "make [them] rich" if they find the right person. The singer is also willing to use physical intimidation to get what they want, as evidenced by the line "I didn't let her see my cold premeditation."
Overall, the song paints a dark picture of a person who is willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead, regardless of the harm that they might cause to others. The lyrics suggest a lack of empathy or compassion, and a willingness to exploit others for personal gain. The repeated refrain of "I'm just a hustler" emphasizes the singer's lack of remorse and their belief that their actions are justified.
