Jesus, after being home and living in normality, still regrets losing Whatsername. It’s been so long, he can’t even remember her name. He wonders what happened to her. All he has is his memories of her. The album ends with him still trying to forget her.
Billie Joe some years later stated in a twee...
Whatsername Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to only be a dream
[Chorus]
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away, and then I took a different path
I remember the face, but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
[Verse 2]
Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry ol' Whatshisface?
[Chorus]
I made a point to burn all of the photographs

(It seems like forever ago)
She's in my head, I must confess
(Remember, whatever)
The regrets are useless in my mind
(It seems like forever ago)
She's in my head, so long ago
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go, go
[Outro]
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you, but not the time

Billie Joe told VH1 Storytellers:
I think that the true hero of the whole record is the Whatsername character. She’s a person that never really wanes; she never really falls from grace. She’s the one that kind of stuck to her beliefs and left all the bulls–t behind. The Whatsername character tells...
