My Humps by the Black Eyed Peas was released in 2005 and reached number 3 in both the US and UK charts. The lead singer of the Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, gave an interview in Q magazine, explaining the lyrics of this song. She explained that the song is basically about herself and her lifestyle. When she sings about her hump she is talking about her left forearm that, in the Hindu religion represents tranquillity. The lumps she is singing about are based on a car accident that she was involved in when she was 16 years old. She was driving down a road in her yellow VW when she skidded and crashed straight into a tree and the injury from this accident has left her with a lump. It is a common miss conception that this song is about sex and people are surprised when they learn the true meaning of the lyrics.
In response to this I leave you the lyrics:
What you gon' do with all that ass?
All that ass inside them jeans?
I'm a make, make, make, make you scream
Make you scream, make you scream.
What you gon' do wit all that breast?
All that breast inside that shirt?
I'ma make, make, make, make you work
Make you work, work, make you work.
Wow, huh?
