[Green Day - Working Class Hero lyrics]

As soon as you're born
They make you feel small
By giving you no time, instead of it all
Until 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
Until 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 20-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

They keep you doped up 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 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
