– Hooker (4:49) –

(Pietro Cottone – Davide Marchese)

This song is about being a prostitute. It speaks beyond about a prostitute being just a hooker. This song is about prostitutes being women with their stories of sexual abuse, human trafficking, drug abuse, violence and poverty.

Lyrics:


Close to midnight, walking down the street

Moon is high, fire’s burning, skirt and heels under her feet

A gentleman clean and godly pulling over the expensive car

She seats in his tidy car and gets swallowed by the dark

Oh yeah, hooker, her body is hot, her legs on fire

Hooker, she’ll let him fly

Hooker, she is selling sex into the night

Hooker, she’ll let him fly

Sally is migrant, she’s beaten by a nasty pimp

Tiffany’s a heroin addict, she won’t make it to 26

Drunken Tamara’s daddy used to fuck her ‘til she was 9

Gaby‘s to feed her child, it’s not a problem to sell her life

Hooker, her body aches, her legs are tired

Hooker, she dreams to fly

Hooker, under that dress a woman strives

Hooker, she dreams to fly

Hooker, her body aches, her legs are tired

Hooker, she dreams to fly

Hooker, under that dress a woman strives

Hooker, she dreams to fly
