Green Day : Working Class Hero Lyrics

Songwriters: Lennon, John;

. Send "Working Class Hero" Ringtone to your Cell .

As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
'Til 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 if you're clever and despise a fool
'Til 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 classless 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're telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like all the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

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

. Send "Working Class Hero" Ringtone to your Cell .

#1 Slipknot fan. THIS ISN'T A GREEN DAY SONG!!!!! Imagine that. This is a John Lennon song. I like Heavey metal, but it just so happens that I like other types of music as well. I'm not narrow minded. I'm not a Bigot.

This song IS one of the greatest songs ever, but not by Green Day. For anyone who doesn't know what I'm talking about, look up John Lennon-working class hero. The origional. The Best. I think that Green Day did an excellent job at keeping it true to the origional, but it still doesn't compare.
