As soon as your born they make you feel small
|
by giving you no time instead of it all
|
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
|
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
|
They hate you if you're clever and despise a fool
|
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
|
When they've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years
|
then they expect you to pick a career
|
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
|
Keep you doped with religon, sex and T.V.
|
and you think you're so clever and classless and free
|
but you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
|
There's room at the top I'm telling you still
|
but first you must learn how to smile as you kill
|
if you want to be like the folks on the hill
|
Working Class Hero is something to be
|
|
Yes, A Working Class Hero is something to be
|
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
|
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
|
