Tre is a drummer, but he also wrote some funny songs:
In 1992, when Green Day released Kerplunk! Tre wrote the song "
Dominated Love Slave" and put this on the album.
Several live tracks also exist, usually from early dates around 1993 such as "
Food Around the Corner", a song he composed about Billie Joe's mom, and "Boys in the Bathroom Stall".
In 1994, "Dookie" had a hidden track after "F.O.D." called "
All by myself" in which Tre sings about his favourite subject masturbation. The song was recorded at a party where Tre got stoned with friends.
The most famous song that Tre has wrote is certainly "
Like a rat does cheese" which isn't on any their albums but has the same subject as "All by myself".
During a radio interview at Washington DC's alternative station, DC 101, Tré sang and played it, a song about the pleasure of fellatio.
Another Tre's song is "
D.U.I." (Driving Under The Influence), which is about Billie Joe and has a nice rhythm plays with the accordion. It was recorded during the Nimrod sessions, and was due to be released on Shenanigans (a compilation of B-sides), but was inexplicably omitted.
In 2004, Tre wrote "
Rock and Roll Girlfriend" which is a piece of "Homecoming" in American Idiot album. But Tre kept it clean!
In 2005, in their first dvd live, Bullet in a Bible, Tre sings this new rhythm or new short song (that I have called "
From Bullet in a Bible"). He sings it around the first hour of the dvd, ( maybe 01:06:12), in a documentary completely dedicated to him. At the same time he looks away on the street...
