As   soon as you're born they   make you feel sm   all
By   giving you no time i  nstead of it   all
Until the   pain is so big you feel   nothing at al   l
 
 
  A working-class hero is so  mething to    be
  A working-clas  s hero is so  mething to    be
 
 
They   hurt you at home and they   hit you at scho   ol
They   hate if you're clever and   despise a f   ool
Until you're   so fucking crazy you can't   follow their r   ules
 
 
  A working-class hero is so  mething to    be
  A working-clas  s hero is so  mething to    be
 
 
When they've   tortured and scared you for   20-odd year   s
  Then they expect you to pi  ck a career  
When you   can't really function, you're so f  ull of fea   r
 
 
  A working-class hero is so  mething to    be
  A working-clas  s hero is so  mething to    be
 
 
Keep you   doped up with religion and   sex and T.   V.
And you   think you're so clever and c  lassless and f   ree
But you're   still fucking peasants as far   as I can se   e
 
 
  A working-class hero is so  mething to    be
  A working-clas  s hero is so  mething to    be
 
 
There's   room at the top, they're telling you   stil   l
But   first you must learn how to   smile as you k   ill
If you   want to be like all the fo  lks on the h   ill
 
 
  A working-class hero is so  mething to    be
  A working-clas  s hero is so  mething to    be
 
 
If you   want to be a hero, well just   follow m   e
If you   want to be a hero, well j  ust follow m   e
