Working Class Hero

As soon as you´re born they make you feel amall
By giving you no time of at all
Until 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

Well 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 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 old 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 to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
Yes a working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero then just follow me
If you want to be a hero then just follow me
