Forgot to complete the explanation. VALUES has its own meaning:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/sql-values.html
So:
test=> VALUES (1, 2), (3,4);
column1 | column2
---------+---------
1 | 2
3 | 4
(2 rows)
test=> VALUES ((1, 2), (3,4));
column1 | column2
---------+---------
(1,2) | (3,4)
(1 row)
