Working Class Hero

As soon as you're born they make you feel small
Giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero it's something to be
A working class hero it's something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at schoool
They hate you if you're clever and they dispise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero it's something to be
A working class hero it's something to be

When they tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero it's something to be
A working class hero it's something to be

They keep you doped with religion your sex and TV
You think you're so clever and class less and free
But you're still fucking pesents as far as I can see
A working class hero it's something to be
A working class hero it's something to be

There's room at the top they are telling you still
First you must learn how to smile as you kill
You wanna be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero it's something to be
A working class hero it's something to be

You wanna be a hero then just follow me
You wanna be a hero then just follow me
