"Dumpweed" is a song by the American rock band Blink-182 from their third studio album, Enema of the State (Made in 1999). The song explores frustration in relationships.
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.
"Dumpweed" explores frustration with women. Gavin Edwards of Rolling Stone summarized the song as "about an ambivalent guy imagining the pain and the freedom of breaking up with his girlfriend, set to an unstoppable staccato rhythm." It has been described "callow complaint about girls not always doing exactly what you wish they would" by New York's Nitsuh Abebe. The song is based around the hook "I need a girl that I can train," as in dog training. DeLonge explains the song in a 2000 tour booklet: "Girls are so much smarter than guys and can see the future as well as never forget the past. So that leaves the dog as the only thing men are smarter than." In an interview with MTV News the previous year, he clarified that the line did not refer to his girlfriend: "I got a lot of shit from her for that one."
