As soon as you're born they make you feel small
   (  Am  )                    (G )          (  Am  )
By giving you no time instead of it all
         (  Am  )                      (G )          (  Am  )
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

     (  Am  )                                 (G )         (  Am  )
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
            (  Am  )                         (G )            (  Am  )
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
(  Am  )                      (G )        (  Am  )
Then they expect you to pick a career
         (  Am  )                           (G )          (  Am  )
When you can't really function you're so full of fear

         (  Am  )                      (G )         (  Am  )
Keep you doped with religion and sex and T.V.
        (  Am  )                         (G )             (  Am  )
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
           (  Am  )                        (G )            (  Am  )
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see

There's room at the top they are telling you still
    (  Am  )                          (G )            (  Am  )
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
       (  Am  )                  (G )            (  Am  )
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
  (  Am  )                    (G )            (  Am  )
A working class hero is something to be
