　　你一出生他们就让你自感渺小

　　他们不给你时间卸下自卑

　　直到痛苦强烈到使你麻木

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　在家里他们伤害你 在学校他们打击你

　　你聪明，他们就恨你；你笨，就看不起你

　　直到你发狂 没法守他们的规矩

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　二十多年来折磨你恐吓你

　　然后他们希望你挑个职业

　　但你已经出毛病了 你满心恐惧

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　他们用宗教和性和电视麻醉你

　　你自认为很聪明 非阶级 自由自在

　　但在我看来你还是个乡巴佬

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　他们告诉你上层仍有位置

　　但你先得学会杀人时面带微笑

　　如果你想要像那些上层人物

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　当个工人阶级英雄多了不起

　　想成为英雄你就跟我来吧

　　想成为英雄就跟我来吧

　　

　　Working Class Hero

　　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 classless and free

　　But you're still 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
