murdered 25 years ago. no less relevant. by far my favourite lennon song is not one you usually hear on the radio. here are the lyrics
Working Class Hero
by John Lennon
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 class less 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 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
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
The U.S. Congress, for selling out once again and allowing drilling in the ANWR in a late-night session. If only people here had the same balls the patriots had in the 1770s, they should all be scared for their lives in their posh mansions.
Evo Morales. New president of Bolivia and first ever native american president! Add one more for Chavez's side. I'm sure the CIA is warming up their sniper rifles already.
