Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 his pockets
He just kept saying, "Life is like a box of chocolates"
[Verse 2]
He's Gump, he's Gump
What's in his head?
He's Gump, he's Gump, he's Gump
Is he inbred?
[Verse 3]
Gump was a big celebrity
He told JFK that he really had to pee
He never feels too dumb because
His mom always told him stupid is as stupid does
[Verse 4]
He's Gump, he's Gump
He's kind of square
He's Gump, he's Gump, he's Gump
What's with that hair?
Wow, yeah
[Verse 5]
Run, run, run, run now Forrest
Run, run, run like the wind now
Run, run, run, run now Forrest
Run, stop
[Verse 6]
His buddy Bubba was a shrimp loving man
His friend with no legs he called Lieutenant Dan
His girlfriend Jenny was kind of a slut
He went to the White House, showed LBJ his butt
[Verse 7]
He's Gump, he's Gump
He's not too bright
He's Gump, he's Gump, he's Gump
But he's alright
[Verse 8]
Wow, is this Gump out of his head?
I think so
Is this Gump really brain dead?
I think so
Yeah, woo
Did this Gump make lots of bread?
I think so
And that's all I have to say about that
