Dumpweed

"Dumpweed" is a song by American rock band Blink-182. It is the opening track from their third studio album, Enema of the State (1999). A live version of the song was released as a promotional single in November 2000 supporting the band's live album The Mark, Tom and Travis Show (The Enema Strikes Back). The song explores frustration in relationships.

==Background== Though credited to both guitarist Tom DeLonge and bassist Mark Hoppus, the song was written and sung by DeLonge. The song originated as a collection of unrelated guitar riffs, which he considered "catchy and intricate but simple", bridged with what he felt was a "very nursery rhyme" riff to augment the verse. The song opens Enema of the State; DeLonge, in the 2016 documentary The Pursuit of Tone, felt it was a good indication of the direction the band was heading in, and called it "probably the best opener we've ever had."
