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.

Fortunate Son Lyrics
Circle Jerks
The boys are bored to wave the flag
The red, white and blue
And when the band plays, hail to the cheif
To point the cannons right at you
It ain't me, It ain't me
I ain't no sinner's son, no
It ain't me, It ain't me
Cuz I ain't no fortunate one
......... are born, so much burning ........
Why don't they help themselves?
And when the tax man comes to the door
The house looks like the running cell
It ain't me, It ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son, no
It ain't me, It ain't me cuz
I ain't no fortunate one
......... are born, stars ...........
................. the war
And when they ask how much did we give?
The only answer, more, more, more
It ain't me, It ain't me
I ain't no military son, no
It ain't me, It ain't me
