Song of the Week – 1-12-10 – The Big Pink by Velvet
Tuesday, January 12th, 2010
This week's song is yummy on so many levels. I've heard it in my car numerous times, zooming at 75 on the 405 while listening to XMU. Good stuff for that.
I'm seeing the video for the first time now. Wow, this is powerful. And the sound. Need I mention the sound? The Big Pink recently signed to 4AD Records. Indulge yourself.

Here are the song lyrics for Jerk it Out by The Caesars
Wind me up
put me down
start me off and watch me go
I'll be running circles around you sooner than you know
A little off center
and i'm out of tune
just kickin this can along the avenue
But i'm alright
coz it's easy once you know how it's done
you can't stop now
it's already begun
you feel it
running through your bones
and you jerk it out
jerk it out
shut up
hush your mouth
can't you hear you talk too loud?
No I can't hear nothing 'cause I got my head up in the clouds
I bite off anything that I can chew
I'm chasing cars up and down the avenue
But that's ok
coz it's easy once you know how it's done
you can't stop now
it's already begun
you feel it
running through your bones
and you jerk it out
jerk it out
