Circle Jerks are a punk rock band formed circa 1979 in Hermosa Beach, California. Lead vocalist Keith Morris was an original member of Black Flag, co-founding the band with Greg Ginn and recording the Nervous Breakdown EP with them before suddenly departing the group in 1979. Morris formed Circle Jerks along with guitarist Greg Hetson, bassist Roger Rogerson (a classically trained guitarist), and drummer Lucky Lehrer. They, along with such bands as Black Flag and Bad Religion, were among the preeminent punk bands of the L.A. scene in the early '80s.

Anxious Boy Lyrics
Circle Jerks
i'm an anxious boy happiness eludes me
in my reach...poof! then it's gone
dust my shoulders shaking knees
scratch this itch that i can't reach
i wanna belong
i wanna be loved... jump up and kiss me
with my tongue planted firmly to the side of mouth
took some days to sort things out
they're dropping hints of uneasiness
filled with hostility and hatred
i wanna belong
i wanna be loved
jump up and kiss me
if you
if you
kiss me
if you could
if you
if you
kiss me
if you could
sand me down i'm feeling rough
turn me off... i've had enough
i'm a nervous guy pleasure escapes me
in my grasp...swoosh! then it's gone
twitching hands sack of bees
scratch this itch that i can't reach
i wanna belong
i wanna be loved
jump up and kiss me
if you
if you
kiss me
if you could
if you
if you kiss me
bit part actors one act town
press these buttons knock it down
i've lost your faith
i need your trust
far as i'm concerned your name is dust
