"Jerk" is a Neurotic Outsiders single, released from the Neurotic Outsiders album by released Maverick / Warner Brothers Records in 1996.
About the single[]
Steve Jones wrote and also performed vocals on the song, with John Taylor playing bass.
The verse is vocally-oriented, with sharp, punky palm-muted guitar and a tight rhythm giving way to loose strumming on the chorus. The guitar solo has a Sex Pistols feel with Chuck Berry-style double stops, that recall the 1970s "God Save The Queen" single.

I don't mind, I don't really mind Take your time, take your precious time You're so blind, you're severly blind But never you mind, 'cause I just came to grind You're a bitch, I'm a jerk I don't think that we can work You're a prat, I'm a prick I don't think that we will stick I'm a cat, you're a chick I think you deserve one more lick Come on down Come on down Come on down Be yourself, please be yourself You're so mean do you know what I mean? You're unkind, you're so not my kind I need time, I need time to unwind You're a bitch, I'm a jerk I don't think that we can work You're a prat, I'm a prick I don't think that we will stick I'm a cat, you're a chick I think you deserve one more lick Come on down Come on down Come on down I got the big e From the queen bee She don't love me, she don't want me I'm so blind, I'm so fucking blind She's blown away my mind, she's blown away my stupid mind You're a bitch, I'm a jerk I don't think that we can work You're a prat, I'm a prick I don't think that we will stick You're a cunt, I'm a cock Are you ready, ready to rock? Come on down Come on down Come on down
