Mutt [Blink 182]

American Pie · American Pie [Soundtrack] [1999]

He pauses shaving and he tells himself that he is the bomb

She has her curlers set, her credit cards are paying the funds

Hes not that old, Ive been told a strong sexual goal

He goes out every day, she goes every way, oh yeah

And they dont even care at all



Shes open waiting for more

And I know hes only looking to score

And it is way too unhealthy

Often they typically

Been starved for attention before



She smokes a dozen and he doesnt seem to notice the smell

He took the seat off his own bike because the way that it felt

He wants to bone, this I know she is ready to blow

They go out every night, his pants are super tight, oh yeah

And they dont even care at all



Shes open waiting for more

And I know hes only looking to score

And it is way too unhealthy

Often they typically

Been starved for attention before

Mutt [Blink 182]

Released on the 1999 soundtrack for the film American Pie, Blink 182's "Mutt" stands as a defining track of the mid-2000s pop-punk revival. The song captures the band's signature blend of jangly guitar riffs, driving drums, and Travis's distinctive vocals, delivering a narrative about teenage anxiety and social awkwardness that resonated deeply with a generation. As a key component of the film's soundtrack, the recording helped cement Blink 182's status as one of the most influential acts of the era, bridging the gap between the nu-metal explosion and the subsequent rise of alternative rock. Its inclusion in the American Pie franchise underscored the band's ability to craft catchy, emotionally charged anthems that defined the cultural landscape of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
