Working class hero lyrics

Artist  : Lennon john 
Song : Working class hero
 
As soon as you’re 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
A working class hero is something to be
A 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 they despise a
fool
Till you’re so fucking crazy you can’t follow
their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

When they’ve 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 is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and tv
And you think you’re so clever and classless and
free
But you’re still fucking peasants as far as I can
see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

There’s room at the top they are 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
A working class hero is something to be
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
