grut is punk, pop-punk, punk-pop, garage, lo-fi, blah blah blah. If you love cheese, then you will love grut!
UNCLE FREDDIE DIED?'S philosophy is simple: nod and smile enjoy the strange play the uncanny drink the incredible strip naked talk to strangers learn to let go have a drink before noon stay up late wake the dead

Story behind the song
I honestly have no idea what this song is about. It's dada at its best. The guitarist in my band in college, Mark Renard, wrote the music for this song. I wrote new lyrics around 1995. I hate the way the lyrics came out, especially on the verses. They sound quite muddy. I had recorded the vocals through a microphone, instead of using the built in mic on my 4-track, which always produced better results.
Lyrics
Cruising the streets in my orange beehive Tomorrow I may as well learn how to strive All that I do I do to revive I won't ever try to duck and dive My dada friends are fond of eggrolls Grip myself a throttle, one with holes Heaven or hell, such a skinny waist Every deadbeat has his dying place Grippin the throttle (x4) This useless poem was a drinking song Back when rappers used to sing along In case you were wondering, the gun's in the closet Came to the sperm bank, you were drinking deposit Had me a neighbor, liked to drink gasoline Cooked in the Army till he killed a marine Wasted his sanity pissing in bottles Hung with the schizos now he's grippin' the throttle Grippin the throttle
