Songfacts®:

  • Kate Nash told the Metro newspaper December 6, 2007 about this song: "It's called Pumpkin Soup but it's not about soup, it's about kissing boys. It's about when you're with someone and they're really rubbish but you make up in your head that they're better than they are."
  • The CD single's B-side is "Pistachio Nut," a spoken-word poem written by Nash, which was recorded on the tour bus during her 2007 UK tour.
  • In the song's video the actor in the kissing booth with Kate Nash is a real-life friend of hers, a photographer named Wesley Goode.
