"Mutt" tells the story of a popular, affluent, amorous couple. The song soundtracks Weatherly's appearance in the Taylor Steele surf film The Show (1998). "It's just a song about a guy and a girl who like to have sex and who don't really care about much of anything else," DeLonge said in 2000.
Weatherly was known as "Mutt" among friends, a nickname co-created by musician Jack Johnson, and his popularity among women inspired the song. The two lived together in Pacific Beach, California for three years in the mid-1990s an editorialist for Men's Journal described the duo's reputation for "wine, women, and song" as the stuff of "local lore". "Mutt" was written primarily by DeLonge about his friend and former roommate, Benji Weatherly. Guitarist Tom Delonge wrote the song for a surfer friend.
A 2016 Rolling Stone reader's poll ranked "Mutt" among the trio's fans' favorite tunes. This edition had a prominent placement on the soundtrack for the 1999 film American Pie the song plays during a memorable scene in which the main character attempts to woo a foreign exchange student. The song was later re-recorded with drummer Travis Barker and included on the band's 1999 album, Enema of the State. The band first recorded the song for Weatherly's appearance in the 1998 surf film The Show, prior to Raynor's exit from the group.
