Hamburger Lady versuri

Versuri Throbbing Gristle – Hamburger Lady lyrics

[Verse 1]
By far worse is the Hamburger Lady
We must heal them for the qualified technicians
Worse
Alternating nights unrelievedly
She’s lying there

[Chorus]
Hamburger Lady
Hamburger Lady

[Verse 2]
She’s dying, she is burned from the waist up
On her arm
Her ear is burned, her nose is burned
Her eyelashes and her fingers are burned
She can’t hold anything up
And the medical advances
There’s no end in sight
For Hamburger Lady

When somebody tells you that there is a level of pain beyond which the human mind
Beyond which is the level of pain of the lady on the potty chair
Unrelievedly
She’s burned from the waist down
That’s what keeps her alive: the tubes

And the nice nurses

[Chorus]
Hamburger Lady
Hamburger Lady

[Verse 3]
She’s okay, if you change the tubes
Tubes in her legs, the tubes in her arms
Then the medic came and when he came out and saw one of the burn nurses at the desk
He was eating a can of chili-mac
And he flashed on the carpet, flashed on the floor

The Hamburger Lady
Stretch since she came to us
Unrelievedly
The qualified technicians

[Chorus]
Hamburger Lady
Hamburger Lady

[Verse 4]
Two minutes every three weeks and two minutes everyday
Things around seep in pain, knowing pain
Propping in the potty chair, keeps her kneeled down
Qualified technicians
Keeps her alive
