As soon as you're born they make you feel small |
|
By giving you no time instead 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 so ******* 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 ****d with religion and sex and TV |
|
And you think you're so clever and classless and free |
|

|

|
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 |
|
