JEALOUS BOY WEEK

John Lennon - Working Class Hero
In this "week" of listening, I won't include "Imagine" or "Mind Games," but I couldn't deny myself this one.....

"They hurt you at home and beat you at school, they hate you if you're smart and despise the stupid, until you go crazy, you can't follow their rules.
A working-class hero is something to be.
After torturing and frightening you for twenty whole years, they expect you to pursue a career, and when you can't function, you're so terrified.
A working-class hero is something to be.
They keep you drugged with religion, sex, and TV, you think you're smart, classless, and free, but you're still a fucking jerk, as far as I know.
There's room up there at the top, but first, you must learn to kill while smiling.
A working-class hero is something to be."
