OUT NOW → WORKING CLASS HERO 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 fucking 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 classless and free But you're still fucking 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're 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 Yes, 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 Written by John Lennon Acoustic guitar and vocals by John Lennon From the album 'John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band' by John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band Notes from Lennon Legend DVD: Directed by Simon Hilton in 2003, this film for 'Working Class Hero' was filmed in Liverpool at locations important to John Lennon's childhood - at Dovedale, John's primary school; at the Strawberry Field Salvation Army Home in Woolton and John's childhood home 'Mendips' at 251 Menlove Avenue (also in Woolton), which had recently been acquired by Yoko Ono Lennon, donated to the National Trust and restored to a high standard in order for the public to visit.
