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 cla** hero is something to be,
A working cla** 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 f**ing crazy, you can't follow their rules.
A working cla** hero is something to be,
A working cla** hero is something to be.
When they 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 cla** hero is something to be,
A working cla** hero is something to be.
Keep you doped with religion and s** and tv,
And you think you're so clever and cla**less and free.
But you're still f**ing peasants as far as i can see.
A working cla** hero is something to be,
A working cla** hero is something to be.
There's a room at the top, they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you k**.
If you want to be like the folks on the hill.
A working cla** hero is something to be,
A working cla** 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.
