    Lyrics:
    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,
    But you really can't 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 are telling us still
    But first we must learn how to smile as we kill
    If we want to live like 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

      NO! This is why I'm back on this page. I hadn't heard either for ages but have loved them both & heard both versions countless times. So after reading comments like yours I started thinking it was the better version too. As I'm on a Marianne Faithful binge atm I thought maybe I should relisten to Lennon's version before just deciding to go with the "This is the better version' comments because this was sounding fantastic when I read comments during the 2nd play. So played both studio versions & then Lennon's Anthology version & then this again. By the time I heard the original version by Lennon I knew it Lennon's version is definitely better. I love this but Lennon puts his soul into his one just that bit more imo

As I'm on a Marianne Faithful binge atm I thought maybe I should relisten to Lennon's version before just deciding to go with the "This is the better version' comments because this was sounding fantastic when I read comments during the 2nd play. So I played both studio versions & then Lennon's Anthology version & then this again. By the time I heard the original version by Lennon I knew it Lennon's version is definitely better. I love this but Lennon puts his soul into his one just that bit more. He sound's , I don't know, I can't explain it but mabey it's like he spiuts the words & lives em as he says em, he puts strong feelings in it & I love this to but Lennon's! Can't be beaten, he wrote it, he owns it. imo Like I said I love this too & thought for a copuple of minutes it was the better. Because I hadn't heard either for to long only!

As we hurry home, to Dom. Story wwas Roweena's younger sister was named Mariane. her dad was doing LSD resarch in USA came back here, wife had a lover, he jumped off a cliff.

    Appena nasci ti fanno sentire piccolo
    Non dandoti tempo invece di tutto
    Finché il dolore non è così grande che non senti proprio niente
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Ti hanno ferito a casa e ti hanno picchiato a scuola,
    Ti odiano se sei intelligente e disprezzano uno sciocco
    Finché non sei così fottutamente pazzo che non puoi seguire le loro regole
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Quando ti hanno torturato e spaventato per vent'anni dispari
    Poi si aspettano che tu scelga una carriera,
    Ma non puoi davvero funzionare, sei così pieno di paura
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Tieniti drogato con la religione, il sesso e la TV
    E pensi di essere così intelligente, senza classi e libero
    Ma per quanto posso vedere siete ancora dei fottuti contadini
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    C'è ancora spazio in cima che ci dicono ancora
    Ma prima dobbiamo imparare a sorridere mentre uccidiamo
    Se vogliamo vivere come la gente sulla collina
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
    Un eroe della classe operaia è qualcosa da essere
