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.

I Just Want Some Skank Lyrics
Circle Jerks
empty frame on the wall
cat & mouse when you don't call
all I do is think of her
t.v. screens picture's blurred
so take it away!
take it away!
every night the scene is set
I've got to drink to forget
I cannot incure this debt
where's the gun?
here's my head!
let's go to the hongkong
breaking glass at madame wong's.
let's go buy a pint of booze
getting drunk getting loose
I just want some skank!
I just want some skank!
I just want some skank!
I just want some skank!
passing flyers at the troub
seven nights seven 'ludes
what's the deal with this band?
Let's go roll some fields, man
I just want some skank!
I just want some skank!
I just want some skank!
I just want some skank!
every night would be so great
i'd take you home to meet mom & dad
and they'll be so glad
they won't think their boy's a fag
then they'll go upstairs and go to bed
