Is big hands about the singer’s girlfriend?

He knows ‘Big Hands’ is the one… his girlfriend is at the end because their relationship isn’t real (because he’s gay). Then someone told me that it was about the singers girlfriend.

Why is big hands by the Violent Femmes so popular?

In the early ’90s, as “alternative” and “modern rock” radio stations went on the air, it got a lot of airplay because it was considered a classic of the genre.
