A product of blink-182's longtime connection to the southern Californian surf scene, “Mutt” was inspired by Benji Weatherly, a pro surfer Tom once lived with who had a lot of sex. The song played during Benji’s part in the 1998 surf video The Show. Before its placement on Enema of the State, Blink would call it “The Surf Song” when they played it live. The song also had a notable and fitting role in an iconic scene in the 1999 sex-comedy "American Pie".
