The story goes the entire existence of this band was a bet between some college kids to make an absurd hit on MTV. And they ended up making three or four of them.
It wasn't technically random when kids are casting around for anything that is not, "in the mould", these guys needed the 90's and the 90's needed them. They're Lump!
I've been listening to music for about 55 years and everything from the 60's on and appreciate the evolution of rock n roll. I really enjoy the 90's rock, all of it, indie, underground, alternative etc..great sounds!! Thanks to all the artists for all of that great music!
Oh? I thought it was the other way around. That Minecraft's dedication to this song was the truly impressive part of that game... 🤪 sorry, that came out wrong... it won't leave my head the way I want to say it....WHY!?
with a souped up tempo? I'm on a roll; time to go solo Rollin' in my 5.0 With my ragtop down so my hair can blow The girlies on standby, waving just to say, "Hi!" Did you stop? No, I just drove by Kept on pursuing to the next stop I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block That block was dead Yo So I continued to A1A Beachfront Ave
For years I thought he was saying "she's love" I had been SO confused why I couldn't find it, till one of my friends stopped laughing long enough to correct me.
Although I had the CD, I kept thinking the lyric to one New Pornographers song was "all the ocean stoppers." This is despite the fact that the song is "All The Old Show Stoppers." I have no excuse, I just didn't realize it.
The 90's is the greatest generation music will ever know. Glad i was a part of it and listen to these songs in Ohio on 997 The Blitz rock radio. Great song.
The Presidents Of The United States Of America released "Lump" in 1995. The raucous rock song got plenty of radio airplay and exposure on MTV which helped propel it up the charts to number 1 on Billboard's Modern Rock Hits. Lead singer and bassist Chris Ballew wrote the song about a tumor in his head, not a girl. He had hoped the lump might be benign and therefore "dead". I hope knowing its about a tumor and not an ex-girlfriend doesn't spoil it for you. The "Lump" was benign, by the way.
I was caught singing this at the top of lungs inside a Hastings store. They had this little station you could select songs from with headphones. And a store associate tapped me on my shoulder and let me know I was singing really loud good times good times
Literally forgot this was a band and every song they made. Thanks for reminding me RUclips! I was around when it came out and it wasn’t that good then but now that no one actually knows how to make music anymore, this is a blessing!!!
Fun Fact: in 2008, Weird Al Yankovic actually directed the PUSA song Messed up S.O.B and performed live with them in concert singing More than a Feeling by Boston
Indeed. The first time he leaves Eastern Europe and comes to the United States, he forms a band. Not even as a cover for anything, he just wanted to play music after that bastard 36 killed his rabbit.
I just found a lump under my armpit this week, so to make myself feel better about it I decided to listen to this song. The lump, believe it or not, is miraculously.... still there..
Gump sat alone on a bench in the park "My name is Forrest", he'd casually remark Waiting for the bus with his hands in the pockets He just kept saying "Life is like a box of chocolates" He's Gump, he's Gump What's in his head?
I remember it. I think that’s what it’s actually called, lol. And then there’s the girl singing the song that’s like duh “duh, duh duh, duh duh duh duh” that I can’t find 🤣
This song takes me back to the time when I was a 90s kid, very fond memories. When I looked up into the internet, I finally found out that the song is about a Mindless woman who is in an abusive marriage but secretly goes into private parties. She always kept making excuses not to motivate herself and most of the time she does nothing. Until years later she got off the marriage, found a new lover, and then moved on.
I remember seeing this as a kid and it defined the 90's for me: a bunch of guys dressed as Secret Service agents shredding guitars in the middle of a swamp.
I listen to this record on every road trip or long drive. As big as it was in the 90's, I still think it's a bit underrated. The songs are well written and just plain fun. These guys rocked!
My memory of this band. They were playing at my college and between songs my very drunk friend wandered onto the stage and started yelling into the microphone while they were standing behind him. Security then proceeded to jump on the stage and beat the shit out of him. Good times!
I don't know why people are hating on 90's music in the comment section. The 90's has a ton of music that was the foundation of a lot of what we hear today, and that's coming from a teen born in 2004.
There's a crazy conspiracy saying that the director of Forrest Gump (who also directed the Back To The Future movies) contacted this band to create this song, so Weird Al Yankovic could parody it as "Gump" and everyone involved would make a ton of money and retire comfortably.
"Lump slipped on a kiss and tumbled into love" is one of the greatest lines in a song. The imagery it evokes and the emotions it incites.... I fully endorse this endeavour.
It’s really a great tune - funky groove, cool chord progression with some surprising twists... always loved this album when I was a kid, new appreciation for it now.
Wow, can’t believe this song was made by all of the presidents of the United States of America! I can really hear William Howard Taft and George Bush’s parts!
Why the hell did this band split?. They were fairly successful, seemed to be having fun and were a breath of fresh air at a time when bands generally took themselves seriously. Yet by 1998 they were no more. Still dont get it.
man, this song takes me back to when I was a kid... I remember my older brother had this album and I'd borrow it and play it on the sega saturn and listen to it that way. it doesn't get much more 90's than that, I think.
All I'm gonna say is after this it's time to listen to the greatest musician ever Wierd al yankovic cuz this song reminds me of him it's been 20 yrs since I listened to wierd al but dude he sang a parody of this song lump he did gump... cmon fuckin a ...a song of Forrest gump that's my kind of music
In retrospect, you have to *LOVE* how incredibly random hits in the 90s were.
The story goes the entire existence of this band was a bet between some college kids to make an absurd hit on MTV. And they ended up making three or four of them.
Culture is more alghorythmic today. It wont get better
It wasn't technically random when kids are casting around for anything that is not, "in the mould", these guys needed the 90's and the 90's needed them. They're Lump!
The randomness of '90s hits pleased my ADHD and now has me drowned me in nostalgia.
AB-SO-FREAK-IN-LUTELY!
I was just randomly listening to 90's rock (love Sugar Ray) and Lump came on - -- loving it big time!!!! Rock on GenX!!
Heck yeah! That's not even the best song on the album. I had the CD in high school in the 90's!!
I've been listening to music for about 55 years and everything from the 60's on and appreciate the evolution of rock n roll. I really enjoy the 90's rock, all of it, indie, underground, alternative etc..great sounds!! Thanks to all the artists for all of that great music!
The dedication required to remake this entirely in Minecraft is truly impressive.

Love the 14.4k dial-up video quality. REAL 90s SHIT RIGHT HERE.
RealVideo 4 life.
hell yeah ah good times
Low quality VHS recording for max space? I think so!
This video would take nearly 2 hours to download with a 14.4k enjoying a surprisingly good quality line. FYI :
^ Posted to RUclips in 2006.
My dad sang this to me as a lullaby when I was a youngin’, so now whenever I’m driving and this song comes on I fall asleep.
Lol
😂
Damn I didn’t know drums and guitars were sleep inducing
Hol up
You are Lump
most enjoyable in VCR quality
Haha
VCR lol nobody remember those 😂

The VHS I have this on is in better quality. But I had a pretty high end VCR back in the days when Much Music actually showed music videos.
I'd give up the last 20 years for a permanent 90s reality 💯
FACTS!!! 👌👌👌
This song was included in a sampler cd when we got our Windows 95 computer.
Manny Cepeda i got weezer buddy holly
Manny Cepeda Yes sir. Came with my Packard Bell.
INDY92500
1) Windows 95 refers to the year 1995, where Windows 10 refers to the latest version of a series.
2) Shut up.
INDY92500 I think YOU took the bait
still remember this song from Windows 95 sample CD. and I was only 6!
Lots of bands had more players, more talent, more guitar strings... but no band had more fun than these guys.
God bless the 90's.
George Garcia Spiler: No one wins. :)
The audience wins.
A great decade for the rock,after the rock declined.
Well,goddess and gods bless 40 and 50 ..and ...
Yes!!!!
If I ever become a history teacher this is my April Fools day joke when I say "I'm gonna teach you about The Presidents of The USA."
Nice
Very nice 👌
Can i also use this?
Peaches for the incumbent?
Presidents Day
This song, this song, it's in my head...
Is this song out of my head? Don't think so!
What a great song!! It picks me up when I’m feeling down!
ICONS FOREVER thank you very much GOD bless Everyone Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸
One of those songs that is a perfect summation of the sound of its time. This song IS the nineties. Love the Presidents
never realized just how much their sound is defined by that splash cymbal
No, it's a 13 inch Sabian El Sabor splash
with a souped up tempo?
I'm on a roll; time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0
With my ragtop down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby, waving just to say, "Hi!"
Did you stop? No, I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
That block was dead Yo
So I continued to A1A Beachfront Ave
Damn that Vanilla Ice
hahahaha
and the fact that they dont have a bassist. and its a very high end sounding band.
saw these dudes in the early 90's,GREAT LIVE SHOWS
A song that came out when I was 4 and uploaded when I was in high school. Thanks for the memories!! This is a bona fide classic.
This was my first favourite song. I will never forget the nostalgia it brings to me.
The whole CD this song is on is great! If you like this song get the CD. It really is great all the way through.
Thanks I'll check it out
For years I thought he was saying "she's love" I had been SO confused why I couldn't find it, till one of my friends stopped laughing long enough to correct me.
SIGKaotaclysm remember that Filter song where he says “hey man nice shot”? For years I thought he was saying “hey man nice shirt”
i was today years ikd when i found it
@@Mega_Mikey oh my God, i couldn't figure out what you were talking about... I thought he was saying Amen... I had no clue what song you meant... 🤣
Although I had the CD, I kept thinking the lyric to one New Pornographers song was "all the ocean stoppers." This is despite the fact that the song is "All The Old Show Stoppers." I have no excuse, I just didn't realize it.
SAME SPOTIFY MADE ME REALIZE YESTERDAY
song has been stuck in my head for no reason
I just miss the 90's
oh i remember this song kool !!!!
Yeah, old times mastho fly
i cant wait untill they get the timemachine working
Lol amager, I actually wished of having a time machine
The 90's is the greatest generation music will ever know. Glad i was a part of it and listen to these songs in Ohio on 997 The Blitz rock radio. Great song.
This song is so underrated, honesty a classic
Song popped into my head bout 5 months ago..Couldn't get riddo it ..Finally 2 days ago found the CD. Disc is killer ..Long live P.U.S.A
Gotta love the 90ties....so happy I found this song after couple of decades

The "Lump" was benign, by the way.
Or the entire band was created to warn us the President of the USA would one day rhyme with Lump.
Is this Trump out of our head? I don't think so.
Onikin You’re really gonna like Joey Briben then! “Come on, maaan!”
Onike well the dumps out of my head
@@sirmixalot3332 don't think so
@@sirmixalot3332 pardon?
I remember this classic!!!🧠 I love coming across old songs🎶
And this band is still together long live the 90s
I was caught singing this at the top of lungs inside a Hastings store. They had this little station you could select songs from with headphones. And a store associate tapped me on my shoulder and let me know I was singing really loud good times good times
¡No hay otra cosa que me haga tan feliz como escuchar música de los 90s!
OMG THIS SONG WAS ON MY MIND ALL I REMEMBERED WAS THE MELODY BUT I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!! SO GREAT!!! 😭
That feeling! I want it! 🥲
I could imagine this being hard to remember like yes the lyrics are actually " she's lump" lol
This song popped in my head the other day. Flashback to my twenties, great times.
Literally forgot this was a band and every song they made. Thanks for reminding me RUclips! I was around when it came out and it wasn’t that good then but now that no one actually knows how to make music anymore, this is a blessing!!!
Oh, but it was good when it came out🌝💖
Fun Fact: in 2008, Weird Al Yankovic actually directed the PUSA song Messed up S.O.B and performed live with them in concert singing More than a Feeling by Boston
I just love it when artists collaborate on weird shit like this~ brilliantly random🎶🍄💚🌠💜
The Messed Up S.O.B. video was featured on Weird Al's channel for a while back then, too, as the main video that played.
They enjoyed Weird Al’s parody, "Gump", so much that they would starting ending "Lump" with, "And that’s all I have to say about that!"
I gotta admit, I only had 3 strings on my guitar for a few weeks thanks to this band!
I don't remember it being this blurry on MTV.
Haha
yh it wasnt..
i mean this 2006 yt what were you expecting lol
240p of pure VHS power!... this is the best quality you can pull out of your home video recorder praying to the gods to get good MTV signal.
I was 13 years old in 1995 when this came out and I remember riding through the neighborhood on my bike with my Walkman on jamming out to this
I hear ya
Anyone still Lumpin' in 2019 shout up!!
She's sadly in my pants wrong side ! And I blame CANDY
y'all got taste
lumping here man!
Dale Bedford c:
Lumpin' every day
I got this CD from Columbia house. It was one on the 10 free ones I got for buying one. I think I still owe them. Don't worry checks in the mail.
At 40 still listening to this song
@ 50 tee-hee
Possibly the catchiest, most infectious post-punk rock song ever written. EVER.
Its post grunge
Do know what post punk even is dumbass?
don't forget about "Peaches"
@@luispanduroricaldi4209 it's not post-grunge or post-punk. You guys are silly
The way it's performed makes a big difference.
You can imagine my surprise when I took a hike in the woods back in 2018 and came across these guys rockin out
Christ man I’ve never seen such clear video! In all seriousness amazing fucking song.
talk about 4k am I right?
This song is my 20s. Which is when I listened to them alot.
This is one of the songs I just start singing randomly every now and again, like while I'm doing chores around the house or driving. Classic!
This song gets in my head and I sometimes wake up in the middle in night in a sweat singing it.
Now we know what Agent 47 did in the 90's
Indeed. The first time he leaves Eastern Europe and comes to the United States, he forms a band. Not even as a cover for anything, he just wanted to play music after that bastard 36 killed his rabbit.
His best undercover job yet
Hi Joseph!!
If you want to see his child hood just watch some callou
Thank you Stalin for informing us about this
I just found a lump under my armpit this week, so to make myself feel better about it I decided to listen to this song. The lump, believe it or not, is miraculously.... still there..
@Carolann Cannuli-Denton swollen lymph node, it’s conceded back into my armpit, thanks for checking up :)
This song, this song, it's in my head...
Only one thing wrong with this song: it's not long enough!!
Gump sat alone on a bench in the park
"My name is Forrest", he'd casually remark
Waiting for the bus with his hands in the pockets
He just kept saying "Life is like a box of chocolates"
He's Gump, he's Gump
What's in his head?
+Luigiermo Ahumada Weird Al
+Luigiermo Ahumada borrowing it. thx

NachomanRandySavage 😂😂😂😂 silly
Weird Al is just the best
Ok this is cool, and I didn't know it even existed until a few minutes ago, when I heard it on 8 Bit! Funny how things work out.
I remember listening to this on 94.7 NRK Alternative Music Station Back in 6th grade.
FUCK YES I FOUND IT
saints row 4 biiiiiittchh
Tate 01 WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
yessssssssssssssssssssss
i grew up on this shit. i still love this stupid song
Sader CDF what?
the last song a brain tumor patient wants to hear.
+Skrab Yup "...she might be dead..."
Sounds like good news to me.
Lmfao
+So Jo Hey! The lead guitarist looks a little like Obama.
+Skrab Yup actually Chris Ballew says he wrote this precisely because of a tumor he'd got
it was benign at least!
I think you might have taken this too literally. Lump might mean something on his mind... figuratively speaking? Nevermind my friend.
This song just popped into my brain. I still love it after all these years.
I was driving a 1988 Honda Accord Hatch back with no A/C in 1997 to high school and this was my anthem! F***ing love PUSA
This song was awesome as a tween I'm now a old man at 32.....
Eccentric Detectorist's that’s not old lol
Fuck I hear ya mate 👍
i got socks and underwear older than that lol
lol im 38 and still listening this
Martin Bucki i am 37 and listening to it with my kids.
Real music. Real humor. Real humanity...how far back did all go wrong?
Lump reminds us of that hopeless girl we either dated or crushed on in the 90s that disappeared as a groupie and died.
😂😂
this is about a brain tumor lol
That got dark real quick 🤣🤣
One of my all time favorite concerts
Listening again in 2021 and still love it.
Possibly the catchiest, most infectious post-punk rock song ever written. EVER.
I just miss the 90's
I’ve been trying to think of this song for like 3 years but I didn’t know what to searchhhh I just remembered the
Da da da
Da da da da
I remember it. I think that’s what it’s actually called, lol. And then there’s the girl singing the song that’s like duh “duh, duh duh, duh duh duh duh” that I can’t find 🤣
2022 in the house. Who's going to rock this out
Lyrically brilliant.
when I was a baby my dad used to call me "the lump" because I wouldnt move he then showed me this song and said it was my anthem 😂
I still got this song stuck inside my head all the time
It still rocks all these years later
The best, forgotten band. Love these guys. And peaches.
Pure Epic 90's
Pretty dirty song for a band is currently very active with kids music...
And I don't even care!
look up "Body" lol that ones fucked up!
To say absolutely nothing of "Carolyn's Booty" for that matter.
I think one of those guys scored pornos for a bit
They write for porn now.
This song is Lump
It's in my head
This song takes me back to the time when I was a 90s kid, very fond memories.

She always kept making excuses not to motivate herself and most of the time she does nothing. Until years later she got off the marriage, found a new lover, and then moved on.
i thought i was about a brain tumor and how he went insane and the tumor was last in line for his brain that was slightly rotten and insane. lol
a three string guitar and a two string bass-who actually remembers being around when this song came out?
I do. I was in highschool.
I do! I had just started my career!
I do because i lost over 50 pds working out to this song. Still love it!!
I remember it. It was a dumbass song then and it's a dumbass song now.
Bought the CD from The Wall. It broke but I had the sticker so it was replaced.
I remember seeing this as a kid and it defined the 90's for me: a bunch of guys dressed as Secret Service agents shredding guitars in the middle of a swamp.
I listen to this record on every road trip or long drive. As big as it was in the 90's, I still think it's a bit underrated. The songs are well written and just plain fun. These guys rocked!
I was 15 when this song came out, reminds of my skating days with this playing in the boom box. Those were good days!
They were a band with a sense of humour, and a good one. What a tune!!!!!
My memory of this band. They were playing at my college and between songs my very drunk friend wandered onto the stage and started yelling into the microphone while they were standing behind him. Security then proceeded to jump on the stage and beat the shit out of him. Good times!

Sounds Of The Future if it's true it worked pretty good.
I'm so glad that it‘s not just me who thinks the music from the 90's was cool, for me personally it was the soundtrack of my teens. This tune rocks.
No, it's definitely not just you...a lotta people think 90's music was the coolest 🌝🎶💖
Rhythm guitar at its best ! Just fabulous.
1995 called and wants me back
"Lump slipped on a kiss and tumbled into love" is one of the greatest lines in a song.

Is this lump outta my head? I think so!
#90smusic
Yep Yep!!! It's sll in my head!!
Oh my gosh forgot about this song. Lol
Ya! I think so.
Wow, can’t believe this song was made by all of the presidents of the United States of America! I can really hear William Howard Taft and George Bush’s parts!
It's a shame Millard Fillmore's cowbell is so buried in the mix. Underrated player.
the lump is the bullet in jfks head
This drummer really loves his splash cymbal lol
That’s Felipe Esparza…🥴
Damn! Havent heard this song in decades, actually forgot it existed. Great song.
Little Blue Dune Buggy = Best POTUS song.
Too bad the music industry was often flailing in the dark and missing the hits so often at the time.
This is a ROCk band, we need rock bands these days!!
Working on it!
Wrong!!! This is not rock!!! This is post punk!!! Dumbass! 😂😂
Why the hell did this band split?. They were fairly successful, seemed to be having fun and were a breath of fresh air at a time when bands generally took themselves seriously. Yet by 1998 they were no more. Still dont get it.
I love their first album, its brilliant
Only Dave Dederer left. They are still performing today actually.
It's just like every other grunge band from the 90's.
They stopped in 1998 and reformed in 2000.
Never heard from them again after 1998. Good that they at least stayed together
I literally woke up remembering this song. Now here I am jamming to this song on my way to work
He's Trump

What's with his hair?
