Hamburger Song
On the outside, the song itself sounds like an inner battle between a woman and her love of hamburgers. However, when you dive deeper into the lyrics, it becomes clear that it could represent any type of social connection, one where love and hate co-exist side by side. That's why the track is so relatable. Who hasn't experienced those kind of feelings and emotions at some point in life?
This song could easily be an anthem for all love-hate relationships, one that is shared by people of every identity, whether it's flesh and blood or just a burger. Yet, in all honesty, and partially due to our never-ending devotion for sandwiches both big and small, we truly hope her and the hamburger ride bilissfuly into the sunset together.
Sandwich is life. Sandwich is forever.
Regardless of its meaning, one thing is certain, it's easily the best Hamburger song of the year!
