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.

Behind The Door Lyrics
Circle Jerks
Mister,give me the key
point me to the stairs
I don't know what waits for me in
room 13
room 13
dim lit stairway
stains on the floor
looking for 13
what's behind the door?
room 13
room 13
prostitutes,hypes & thungs
meet me on the way
bare ceilings;just blank
walls blank walls, that's okay
prostitutes,hypes & thugs
meet me on the way
empty bottles,spots of blood
that's cool bro, that's cool,'cause
what waits for me?
a whore,a bullet a thug?
that's okay, room 13
that's okay, room 13
turn around
i'll walk away
turn around
i didn't want to stay there anyway
