Scary Song Lyrics:
"Hamburger Lady"
The Lyrics: She's dying
She is burned from the waist up On her arm Her ear is burned off, her nose is burned off, her eyelashes are burned, her fingers are burned She can't hold anything up and with medical advances, there's no end in sight for the hamburger lady Why: The song's lyrics were based off an doctor's report of a lady with burnt skin, so burnt that it looked like hamburger meat. That is all that should be said.
