<< Mating Calls
Today, The Jerk brings you a specially curated work-related set in honor of May Day, increasing union sentiments, and the community endeavor that is XRAY.FM! We know capitalism is full of phonies and bozos, so join us in complaining about work, bosses, and the grind! There's something for everyone today, including Jerry Lee Lewis's "Working Man Blues," "Climb the Ladder" from Bob Marley & The Wailers, and Lou Reed's demand of "Don't Talk To Me About Work." We hear you Lou!
