Formerly the frontman to Pop Punk band Nerf Herder, Parry Gripp (born September 22, 1967) is a songwriter and musician responsible for some of the most notorious earworms on the internet. He's a sometime jingle writer and a sometime writer of offbeat songs that bear the hallmarks of jingles: Short, simple lyrics, catchy hooks. They cover a wide variety of silly topics, from iPhones to waffles, but most are about animals, especially hamsters.His YouTube channels can be found here (songs with videos) and here (songs without videos). His website is here.

Darker and Edgier: The original "I Ain't Got No iPhone" is about someone who has suicidal thoughts because of their lack of an iPhone. Think about it. The 2015 revision rewrote the song to be about someone simply moping. There's also the songs he did for the webseries Helluva Boss; the jingle for I.M.P (Immediate Murder Professionals) and the song "Oh, Millie", which is a love song about one of the employees sung by her husband, Moxxie.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Parry Gripp (Music) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: "Lazy Harp Seal Has No Job" may be a cute song, but if you listen to the lyrics closely, it sounds like a Take That! at affluent, entitled people who look down on less ambitious people who prioritise enjoying their lives over making money.

Ghostly Animals: "Ghost Hamster" is about a ghostly hamster with a ghostly cage, wailing about having a neglectful owner in life. "Ghost Slug" is about...a creepy ghost slug who just slithers around in the night being spooky.

comment
Sluggish Seal: "Lazy Harp Seal Has No Job" is about an adorable baby harp seal who just sits around being cute, getting all the attention, frustrating the singer who is ignored by women despite his expensive camera and yellow jacket.

Megaphone Gag: The song aptly titled "Megaphone" centers around people being locked out of a film festival due to the lack of venue space, regardless of who they are or if they have a ticket. The announcer spends the song yelling at the crowd with the megaphone, with lines such as:

Friendly Pirate: "Pirate Snail On Broccoli Isle" is about a snail who dresses as a pirate and sails the seas with his crew in search of treasure. He, however, doesn't bury his treasure because "That's no fun", and instead shares it with everyone.

Sweet Seal: "Lazy Harp Seal Has No Job" is about a harp seal who is extremely popular with the ladies despite not doing anything but lying around and being cute, which makes a photographer with an expensive camera and jacket jealous of him.

Ode to Food: "This is the Best Burrito I've Ever Eaten" and "Yum Yum Breakfast Burrito" are both about how awesome burritos are. "I Love Bread" is about how the singer, well, loves bread. "Spiral Cut Hot Dogs" is about how the singer loves spiral cut hot dogs and how to make them. "I Like Vegetables" is a rap about how great vegetables are. "Pound Cake" is about how the cake will "pound you in the face with flavour". "All the Nachos You Can Eat" praises a whole lot of nachos. "Chicken Nugget Dreamland" is about a dreamland where there's "infinite flavours of infinite sauce" and one can get a "million-piece box". "Do You Like Waffles?" is about how the singer loves waffles, pancakes, and French toast.
