working_class_hero
Joana. 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 at school
They hate if you're clever
And they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy
You can't follow the rules

A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

When they tortured and scared
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 dope with religion
Sex and tv
You think you're so clever
And classless and free
But you're still fucking peasant
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 when 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.
