Jarvis Cocker has a few qualms about the folks in charge these days, and how better to take those out than with good old-fashioned road rage? But don't expect him to go about anything without a twist. In Dougal Wilson's (LCD Soundsystem, the Streets, Basement Jaxx) latest clip, cabbie Jarvis embarks on a hilarious Grand Theft Auto-esque hit-and-run spree-- inadvertently-- whilst offering advice to a pretty young patron with a deadbeat boyfriend.

That advice, of course, is "Don't Let Him Waste Your Time", which not-at-all-coincidentally happens to be the latest single from Jarvis' self-titled solo debut. Leave it to the Brits to stretch our wallets thin, however: "Don't Let Him Waste Your Time" comes in three exciting formats, one CD and two different seven-inches, each with different B-sides. The CD version even includes one of Jarvis' charming storytelling podcasts, several more of which are presently streaming at the man's Jarvspace. Rough Trade delivers all three singles on January 8.
