Mutation of permutations corresponds to flip of triangulations. We give, in this article, an interpretation of mutation as a metric on the permutation group $S_n$. Using this metric, we characterize a class of permutations called singular permutations. We also establish a connection with Cayley graphs in the sense of its automorphism group.
