~John Lennon~Working Class Hero~
As soon as your born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so great you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is somthing to be
A working class hero is somthing to be
They hurt you at home
And they hit you at school
They hate you if your clever
And they dispise a fool
Till your so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is somthing to be
A working class hero is somthing to be
They've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function your so full of fear
A working class hero is somthing to be
A working class hero is somthing to be
Keep your doped up religoin
And sex and t.v.
And they think your so clever and classless and free
But your still fucking peasants as far as they can see
A working class hero is somthing to be
A working class hero is somthing to be
Theres 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 somthing to be
A working class hero is somthing to be I can't terrorize. I see terror in your eyes. As we go up we go down. I can't socialize . I'll be institutionalized. And see the truth, it's just a lie. And see the truth, it's just a lie. I speak in monition. Leave my fuckin life alone. As we go up we go down. As we go up we go down.
