Happy 67th birthday john !!As soon as you're born they make you feel smallBy giving you no time instead of it allTill the pain is so big you feel nothing at allA working class hero is something to beA working class hero is something to beThey hurt you at home and they hit you at schoolThey hate you if you're clever and they despise a foolTill you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rulesA working class hero is something to beA working class hero is something to beWhen they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd yearsThen they expect you to pick a careerWhen you can't really function you're so full of fearA working class hero is something to beA working class hero is something to beKeep you doped with religion and sex and TVAnd you think you're so clever and class less and freeBut you're still fucking peasants as far as I can seeA working class hero is something to beA working class hero is something to beThere's room at the top they are telling you stillBut first you must learn how to smile as you killIf you want to be like the folks on the hillA working class hero is something to beA working class hero is something to beIf you want to be a hero well just follow meIf you want to be a hero well just follow me

Jan 6, 2009 - Have you noticed? Life is a travel. And defenitively work and work is not the way. Specially when you are working to give power to the power.People need love & education & food, not power. At the end of the travel you are nothing but what you gave to others. If you give a boy support and teach him how to free-thinking you´ll always be that freedom, no matter what cames after.

Jan 6, 2009 - If you just colabore to give money to the power... well, you´ll be just an incredible amount of worthless pieces of paper at the end.Peace & Imagination =)

Jan 8, 2009 - This song touches you in many different ways, makes you want to play it over and over and over just to make sure you didn't miss something good, once you can capture that in a song, your an artist at work....
