Hamburger Lady

Throbbing Gristle Throbbing Gristle

By far the worst is the hamburger lady
We must heal them for the qualified technicians
Worst
Alternating nights unrelievedly
She's lying there

Hamburger lady
Hamburger lady

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
And even with 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

Hamburger lady
Hamburger lady

She's okay if you change the tubes
Tubes in her legs, the tubes in her arms
She's okay
Then he came out and saw one of the burn nurses
She was eating a can of Chile-mac
And he flashed on the carpet, flashed on the floor
The hamburger lady
Stretch since she came to us
Unrelievedly
The qualified technicians

Hamburger lady
Hamburger lady

Two minutes every three weeks and two minutes everyday
Things around seep in pain, knowing pain
Propping in the potty chair, keeps kneeled down
Qualified technicians
Haunting touch, keeps her alive
