Placebo - 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
Makes no sense at all,
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 as perfection,
Hey you,

Things aren't what they seem,
Luxemburger Queen,
Luxemburger Queen,
Luxemburger Queen,
He's a Burger Queen

    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! :)

  25. A.... R....

    Come è dolce questa melodia

  26. D.... E....

    Just saying, the lead singer is from fintry in the city of dundee in scotland

  27. X.... ....

    Esta canción hace compañía a mí soledad con mi botella de alcohol y mi paquete de cigarrillos.

  28. C.... B....

    I came to this world by Caesarean section fact !

  29. K.... M....

    Essa música me remete tanta coisa boa.. placebo sendo sempre minha melhor companhia ❤️

  30. 1.... ....

    Our music...sweet 90s

  31. J.... H....

    it is really over¿

  32. N.... G....

    6 years of first hearing this and it still makes me crumble, honestly didn't think anyone could put that into words

  33. v.... p....

    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.

  34. M.... A....

    I wish more people knew this.

  35. s.... ....

    Пласибо и спонсор моей депрессии, и лекарство от неё

  36. G.... E....

    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 .

  37. S.... M....

    so let's share like everyone down....hearing this song first time in a NA treatment centre in Bristol
    ........OUTSTANDING.

  38. S.... M....

    and still.....

  39. S.... M....

    Magical !!!!!!

  40. T.... M....

    Dude 1 minute of this takes me back years fucking hell

  41. �.... �....

    Само то когда одиноко! Со слезами на глазах 😿

  42. D.... B....

    here still

  43. C.... ....

    La musique idéal pour se poser avec son chéri dans un coin du lit et plus si affinités c est si romantique .

  44. F.... ....

    J'ai entendu ce superbe morceau grâce à la radio classic21. Envoûtant, magnifique !

  45. w.... m....

    Amo por demais essa voz

  46. L.... ....

    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.

  47. E.... M....

    Matchless.

  48. P.... L....

    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"

  49. B.... ....

    So many The Cure vibes in this song. Like I'm listening to some old school Cure.

    B.... ....

    pictures of you i get from it x

  50. J.... E....

    So Bautiful THE song from my dochter enmy XXX mams XXX today iseveryspecial day xx 😪😥❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹

  51. S.... M....

    "Chooses his clothes to match his pallid complexion." Lines like these ... !!!

  52. j.... ....

    This is. Perfect.

  53. r.... l....

    Hopefully one day he'll find his Burger King...

  54. P.... A....

    The tone of Brian's guitar reminds me of the Cocteau Twins.

    P.... A....

    More Robert Smith than Robin Guthrie. 100 % inspiration (plagiarism?) from Cure here. That sounds like "Disintegration" album or the instrumental songs from the mini LP "Lost Wishes", in particular "Cloudberry".

  55. J.... E....

    Is e very romantic song X love it xx ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌹💋today is Placebo day 2mei xx 🍸🍸🎤🍾🍀

  56. S.... C....

    The calming soundtrack of the worst period of my life in the hospital.

    S.... C....

    Crack on, buddy!

  57. U.... M....

  74. E.... L....

    Very mellow despite the lyrics lol @Rayan

  75. s.... -....

    i cried

  76. W.... L....

    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.

  77. D.... B....

    So much truth to each word

  78. G.... F....

    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.

    G.... F....

    Or at a funeral...

  79. k.... ....

    this is my favourite song in the whole world. i'm still shocked at how underrated it is.

    k.... ....

    Because many people do not have a soul and they prefer commercial radio crap😔

  80. S.... o....

    fuck me

  81. I.... G....

    stuck between this and meds for my favourite placebo song

  82. L.... ....

    i'm 32 when I was 15 everytime he went "Hey you" id *boop* my ex on the nose amazing how music is a time machine for a few minutes just transported back to being that dumb kid

    L.... ....

    Beautiful, hit me in the heart.

    L.... ....

    Just wondering are u a male or female? It seems like a female thing to do. But this band is liked by a lot of males. I'm female. NOT LIKE ANY OF THIS MATTERS.

    L.... ....

    it hit me hard

    L.... ....

    I feel the same

  83. H.... ....

    very relaxing :)))

  84. L.... N....

    things arent what they seems

  85. R.... ....

    Uwielbiam!

  86. A.... S....

    I love the mood of this whole album! it's just such a masterpiece!

  87. P.... ....

    I've been a Placebo fan for 13 years and they can still surprise me and make me love them even more

  88. S.... E....

    i grew up listening to my older sister play this song. it's like a melody for my life. <3

  89. 1.... x....

    Christ..I havnt heard this in 15 years..Dont even remember how it goes..But i remember this intro..

  90. N.... P....

    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.

    N.... P....

    Nicolas Pierard so true

    N.... P....

    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 :)

    N.... P....

    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.

    N.... P....

    I always though the two girls on the album cover were twins and they represent the album title Without You Im Nothing

  91. C.... A....

    Placebo will always remind me of Jme and Rory in Chicago. God damn it. Makes no sense at all.

  92. s.... ....

    I like girls...and this song still kicks ass. One of the best actually.

  93. M.... K....

    kızkardeşimle şarkımızdı.

  94. g.... b....

    this song is so beautiful, everyone should hear it

    g.... b....

    giuliana bellusci I agree. It's such a shame that not many people know this Song...
