Songfacts: You can leave comments about the song at the bottom of the page.
This song follows the story of a girl named (or nicknamed) Lump. Her life seems to be a waste, and she comes off as someone who is easily taken advantage of.
Weird Al Yankovic did a parody of this song called "Gump," and wrote the entire thing about the movie Forrest Gump.
This was PUSA's first hit song, and reached #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock charts. (thanks, Bert - Pueblo, NM, for all above)
