Burger Queen lyrics:
Slightly bemused by his lack of direction
Hey you, hey you
Came to this world by caesarean section
Hey you, hey you
Chooses his clothes to match his pallid complexion
Hey you, hey you
Now it takes him all day just to get an erection
Hey you
Things aren't what they seem
Makes no sense at all
Things aren't what they seem
Makes no sense at all
Goes out to cruise and to meet his connection
Hey you, hey you
He never scores he just gets an infection
Hey you, hey you
Dreams of a place with a better selection
Hey you, hey you
Still it takes him all day just to get an erection
Hey you
Things aren't what they seem
Makes no sense at all
Things aren't what they seem
Makes no sense at all
Things aren't what they seem
Makes no sense at all
Things aren't what they seem
Luxemburger queen
He's a burger queen
Slightly bemused by the total rejection
Hey you, hey you
Came to this world by caesarean section
Hey you, hey you
Dreams of a place with a better selection
Hey you, hey you
Dreams of a face that is pure perfection
Hey you
Things aren't what they seem
Luxemburger queen
Luxemburger queen
Luxemburger queen
He's a burger queen - Hudba
One of those rare songs that allows you to wallow in your own misery in way that feels healing and positive
Never a more accurate description
placebo - burger queen (slowed + reverb)- toooooo much better that original)
Very well said
👍
True, makes a distance to decay of the world we are in.
Molko is so good at writing lyrics that are poignant and beautiful, but at the same time vague. Like, you're never sure _exactly_ what he's singing about, but the vagueness works like a horoscope in that people listen and fill in their own meaning, which is why Placebo's songs are so relatable.
Omg, this is the best description
Как хорошо сказано ❤❤❤очень точно
True, but as someone who grew up in the area around Luxembourg and went to an international school there like he did, I know exactly what Molko is singing about here❤ #BurgerQueens👌
vague? this???
One of the most beautiful songs ever. Sad, romantic, nostalgic. Hits right in the feels everytime.
Definately
the best song of Placebo. The most underrated
+Prince LaCroix YES! definitely their best!
+Prince LaCroix Absolutely it is. Beautiness at its best. So moving.
yes
I read this comment under every song, funny
Very underrated
The “Hey you” lines are so hypnotic and I find myself humming the tune constantly.
This song is perfection.
Bloody perfection.
It's sadly relaxing and some kind of magical.
I love it so much.
This song can easy define one of the best moments of my life, with me and my loneliness.
+DELL FETH know that feels
+dirk diggler don't we all my friend don't we all
OMG! I feel the same way
DELL FETH yeah same
Também amigo,não tinha muitos amigo por eu ser gay,as pessoas preferiam ser preconceituosas do que saber realmente quem é VC!Ainda acontece isso(para todos ousa Placebo e deixa seu ser grita e chora)!
Whatever pain you're going through, music like this is always around to help you through it
The calming soundtrack of the worst period of my life in the hospital.
Crack on, buddy!
Not sure why, but the way Brian sings "Hey You" breaks my💔💔💔Probably because things aren't what they seem🙏
ive always loved the vibes this band gives off. pure beauty.
Je t'aime
Placebo have many great songs, but this is still my favorite...
My new song :) your opinion please, Thank you for listening and subscribe to my channel czcams.com/video/sGLCeAvd1zw/video.html
i've been throughso much fuckign music the past couple of years
bob dylan leonard cohen lou reed all that stuff, it's fucking great
but then i get back to this
and fuck
placebo still gets me
it's so fcking good in its own way, it's just undescribable
+Simon Robeyns Placebo always draws me back for some reason of another, they are one of the best out there and have songs for every mood i seem to be in
Listen man, I know its late, But problems change, and whatever they might be now - remember they are different from before and you got over them.
You don't need need to do anything special. Just hold the line.
I hope this reaches someone.
I AM WITH YOU
i remember this from when i was living in drug dens in the middle 90s. the music was matching my surroundings and even deepened the scarlet life i was living.
i grew up listening to my older sister play this song. it's like a melody for my life.
I also had an older sister who had 2 albums, and bang. Then I had all of them myself. All of them up to incl. Sleeping with Ghosts. All my friends borrowed them from me.
6 years of first hearing this and it still makes me crumble, honestly didn't think anyone could put that into words
Oooofff, this song, I would play this on repeat throughout the whole day at college, about 22yrs ago; this song was the only thing that helped me get through the day, the only voice I belived wouldn't hate me if said I wasn't straight.
Weird, bringing back a lot of painful feelings but also like being wrapped in a warm, friendly hug. I miss those days, when discovering yourself was exciting; geez this song gets the tears falling.
can i ask you where are you from?
As a young gay guy from a rural British background, this type of isolation sung about was very relatable back then. And yes, for me it was also that long ago. Mad how quickly the time passes by.
I've been a Placebo fan for 13 years and they can still surprise me and make me love them even more
One of the best song of the album. My first placebo album, totally love it.
I love Brian 's voice so much ! UNIC
This is now my favourite Placebo song.
Brings tears to my eyes, I know I am not alone...
Yep, same.
I know most of you don´t even now what I´m talking about but this guitar playing comes from Syd Barret Astronomy domine. Feel the same when I usually listen to The Cure´s "pictures of you"
This song gets to the channels of my heart I never knew existed. It's indescribable.
I love the mood of this whole album! it's just such a masterpiece!
My brother introduced me to Placebo and I ended up buying this album on vinyl just to spite him. It's honestly one of the best albums I've listened to. Fantastically paced.
Incredible sequencing mate x
god i miss the 90's
I wish i were lucky enough to live in those years:(
Me too & things are so dreadful nowadays I even miss the 00’s
I listened to this album loads in the year after my uncle died, 1998. Moved in with my aunt so we could try and deal with our grief together, which didn't work. Her CD player was on a rack behind the sofa and I sat there into the early hours and listened to this and Mezzanine by Massive Attack, both classic albums. I would chill out and drift off to this and then be awoken by Evil Dildo like a kick in the head, never forget that.
That made me laugh. Yes id drift off to this as a 15 yr old in 1998 and just like you said be hit with the hidden track
@@davidbrennan4802 thought i was one of the few that did that haha
The first time I encountered Evil Dildo was in my car during a traffic jam. My drive to and from work wasn't long enough for me to ever finish the CD, but that day.... I was considering the lyrics from Burger Queen when it finished, since it was the first time I'd properly heard it, and it didn't click that there shouldn't be silence and that the disc should have started over. Scared the absolute fuck out of me when Evil Dildo started.
I can say these songs are part of my DNA.
So painfully beautiful. Such an intricately lyricized tale of addiction, estrangement from the Feminine, and isolation from reality while contemplating beauty. I sort of hope the Burger Queen finds love. The broken need loving.
Just remembered this song, one of the finest songs of it's generation for me.
Zeitloses liebes Lied mit tollen Brian molko als Sänger.💖💏🤗
then: 15 yrs old being all alone at one of these early grown up parties where every boy and girl find each other and i was just loving this song and my sadness.
now: 34, having a family and everything, but sometimes really like to feel this song once again.
Thanks for sharing dude I'm 38 single & alone now for life (born severely disabled and it wouldn't be fair to ask anyone to waste their life being a carer and a partner that's just selfish)
This song takes me back to a relationship in my teens I never gave the nurturing it deserved
this is so me lol
This is the kind of song you’d hear at the end of a movie or at the end of a tv show’s episode.
Or at a funeral...
I've been looking for this song forever..takes me back to my teens
same
Siempre vuelvo a esta canción.
Es un temazo, sin dudas.
The melody. The melody. Hum to it.
Reminds me of my teen years... My first love... So bittersweet
Slightly bemused by his lack of direction
Hey You, Hey You
Came to this world by caesarean section
Hey You, Hey You
Chooses his clothes to match his pallid complexion
Hey You, Hey You

Hey You,
Things aren't what they seem.
Makes no sense at all

Makes no sense at all,
Things aren't what they seem
Makes no sense at all,
Things aren't what they seem

Luxemburger Queen,
He's a Burger Queen.

Make's a grown man shed a tear his song..With how time goes far to quickly !
So many The Cure vibes in this song. Like I'm listening to some old school Cure.
Teetering on the edge of that fine line of nothing left to loose and it's Placebo randomly playing the background music of my life so I know what's going on .. .. yes ,I would love an extra shot of emptiness and soul sorrow to my cup of coffee misery and woe ..
If nothing else, you'll always have ^this^. Stay strong, sister/brother/equallyvalidnonbinaryother.
@@mozquiff1155 female.. yeah, I've had enough of talking to myself , answering myself , laughing at my jokes I tell myself .. it's been a couple of years .. I'm just different than those I've been in close contact with and my refusal to be fake nice or just fake friends just so I wouldn't seem so arrogant or weird I can't , I have my pride for one and for two I have an honesty problem so it never turns out good when others have had people they know who are empty, empty of meanings to understanding ,the one tone rainbow types right in front of me as a way of gaslighting me they've learned to not do that because well.. I will sit there and say absolutely nothing or I will say exactly to the point of what it is .. and the truth it shocks them . . And in these past couple of years I've discovered that my so called best friend( since like 1990-ish until recent-ish .. well it was a deception ai didn't keep many close to me in my circle ) while she really did like me and enjoy me she still was going to screw me over with others that we got along with her cousins and their cousins ... one of them who was a freaking nightmare that I had only met a couple of times came over to me and whispered that she was going to be me , ( horrifying I know)she was drunk/ tipsy and it unnerved me , I said nope I'm me, no one else can be me ever, you can't handle my shoes.. ( jokingly but seriously no .) she kept on to that effect .. When I was about to literally give her a taste of my shoe her cousin snatched her up and away .. her name was Jennifer .. and I listen to a Jennifer's Body , and I think of her, she is / was ( I don't know ) a horrible psycho type person I was told later .. the thing is they know more about me and what is rightfully mine that I earned , that I am of a natural type in who and what I am I never had it in me to be petty hateful or jealous .. I did/do think , and think of solution to problems on so many levels of such more important things that has allowed for their families selves comforts and safety all the while besties was info collecting my life .. no close family, a husband that has turned into the type of person I wouldn't talk to , three missing adult children ( 19-23 one is my niece but she introduced as her mom and I claimed her as a daughter ) we talked all the time and then nothing two of them it's been almost a year and half I've called and asked about them and nobody will acknowledge my questions of them one of them it's not been quiet as long and when I started asking about him ignored .. so trying to stay positive and not wish that they all the worst of the worst to suffer slowly and not die all the way quickly ... or say out loud or think it .. because I was told to not when I was very young .. so I didn't .. ( maybe once or twice .. when I was a kid ..) so.. yay me .. I'm not codependent , I'm not a push over ... I did have a point of loosing it, having just enough of all the ugly on this planet and I really really tried to just not be here anymore ... because damn for all the good I have of myself because it was what was right and just that the one time I asked for help ( not easy for me to ever do ) I was to deal and figure it out on my own.. just a totally cold metal door slammed in front of out of nowhere and my life my world was just flipped .. well I'm usually good at anything I try but I obviously failed woke up three days later in a psych ward , ... total 7 days and then the abuses started .. because of my one mental slip and my refusal to comply and conform and well it's hasn't gotten any better at all .. .. it kind of phuks with you when the ones you protected cared for did everything for never cared anything for you at all.. that's the cherry on top ..
Never heard of this band till last night. Mentioned on comments for a video from a very different band. This album is pleasantly, surprisingly good.
Our music...sweet 90s
*This song never fails to put me to sleep after.*
First song Molko ever wrote. He was only 15 y.o. and constantly bullied due to his Nancy boy antics.
This is really good. Never heard it before and I've been a fan since I was 13. It took me 10 years to find this gem. Lol weird, dark, and sad. It all fits together perfectly.
magnifique chanson comprise en version Française quelle orchestration merveilleuse et brillante voix de Brian bravo placebo
is something about this song...makes me so calm.absolutely placebo!
I’m at Burger King with my burger queen
This song takes me back to happier times
This song is amazing for repeat.
Пласибо и спонсор моей депрессии, и лекарство от неё
Fantastic song that pretty much describes my early life. I'm from Luxembourg and for obvious reasons this song is one of the few that mentions the country along with the The Smiths' "Ask". Nostalgic hit , I'm glad I discovered Placebo around the time "Without you I'm nothing" came out !
i played this a lot probably winter, 2003 or so. winamp was involved.
So fuckin' cringy dood...
Tell me about it, reminds me of a time when I lived in a right dumb, I mean bed out of my family home I with a boyfriend and I used to play this on my disk man walking to the train station when I would make visits home.
Although I was living back home with in 3 months. Lol!
Dave Stites Winamp! Yeah man, I remember playing this on Winamp in high school when I was high. Great times..
Reminds me of being a teenager at my parents only nice house we had during he only time we ever were a family for those few short years. We smoked weed with our friends everyday, we laughed, we lived in a beautiful carefree world. It was nice
IMO, one of their best songs
pure perfection ..
Things aren't what they seem...
Mary Poppins we always learn the hard way.
makes no sense at all
@@marypoppins2232 Sorry 44 now
What a beautiful song
Grande Placebo!!!✨ ❤️
I fucking love this song. It calms me down.
Amazing music, amazing people , amazing band love you guys
🎵Im at burger king with my burger queen can i get a large fry. She's vegan please, so dont put no cheese with some honey mustard on the side🎵
Esa extraña sensación de abrazar a esa persona que ya partió de este mundo y dejo un gran vacío en ti :'(
Puro pa delante
@@ryanrodriguez211 aun duele como el primer dia :c
Very beautiful song makes you lots of feelings...!!!!
What a song !!!
Just beautiful
This song has a strange power to it I cannot explain...but I like it!
An absolutely beautiful track from a magnificent album🔥🔥🔥
I still dont know why, but I love this song so hard :) It is just perfect in its own way
this song is so beautiful, everyone should hear it
giuliana bellusci I agree. It's such a shame that not many people know this Song...
I agree giuliana
I think in this song, Brian and Stefan tried to express the loneliness and boredom they felt while living in Luxembourg as schoolboys in the 80s. Luxembourger Queen may be referring to the unpleasant time they had there. 30 years later, Luxembourg has definitely become a much less boring place. The cover picture of the album may also be a reference to that boring part of their lives with the 2 girls (because Placebo aren't "straight") sitting face to face looking so bored.
Nicolas Pierard so true
I've always felt like this is somehow a song about regrets. And about a person living with the consequences of poor life choices. Maybe an existential crisis of some sort. This is a very sad song :)
i think the picture represents two people who have just had an argument and don't know what to say next. Perhaps they're breaking up too.
I always though the two girls on the album cover were twins and they represent the album title Without You Im Nothing
Brian has said this song is about being a goth gay drug addict in Luxembourg, which...he really didn't like.
This Song is Perfect
It is.
One of my fav, with she's living home (the beatles), down to the well (pixies), street spirit (radiohead), territorial pissings (nirvana), immortality (pearl jam) and others. A real great song, and 3 first amazing albums, forever.
Essa música me remete tanta coisa boa.. placebo sendo sempre minha melhor companhia ❤️
Beautiful.
Def one of my favorite albums
Still love this tune so much!!
sad and beauty
What is sad and beauty? You used them as nouns
Used to listen to the album with an ex girlfriend of mine , every time i hear a song off the album i think of her and the drug fuelled relationship we had at that time , intense but beautiful at the same time as you can guess it didn’t end well . Sorry ex of mine .
every the best of Placebo! LOVE
Pour moi une de leur meilleure chanson
Un envoûtement toujours plus fort à chaque écoute
Last real rockstars
What a great song wtf
The best!! Thank you!
kalbim çırpınıyor bu şarkıyı dinlediğimde
Aynen
@@nuubreed ♥️
"Came into the world by cecerien section" I about died aughing at that line (seriously though,, I almost chocked on my drink from laughing so hard)
the real last rock band
This album becomes a masterpiece by the end. It is a slow gracious death
I miss high school when I discovered this masterful album 😢
One of the best concerts I ever went to was the '98 Stabbing Westward/Placebo double headliner.
I remember after listening to this special band, going to the official site and reading many fan comments answered by Brian Molko. They always were very nice to their fans and this is very important to me and the music is amazing! Thank you for sharing this incredible song! :)
I love this song.
so let's share like everyone down....hearing this song first time in a NA treatment centre in Bristol
........OUTSTANDING.
Well done. I hope you find your higher power
Love this song.
Just love this song ❤️
Great Song, love Placebo 😍
So much truth to each word
I wish more people knew this.
so beautiful
Esta canción hace compañía a mí soledad con mi botella de alcohol y mi paquete de cigarrillos.
pobre infeliz
