[Instrumental]
-
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 * 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 class-less and free
-
But you're still * 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
-
