Many socialist will have their say on John Lennon, many of them will be right when they classify him as "just" an idealist. But John was something that socialist movement will lack for evermore - he dared to dream and imagine. He was aware of the power the working class and this is perhaps one of the greatest tributes to them !

His statue sits in Havana Cuba and his name will always be remembered as visionary that has proven his honesty by relating with the struggling men and women.

Working class will need its heroes now more then ever..

I tried to include imagery that fits the mood and the tone of the song, hope you will like it.
Onwards towards the revolution !


WORKING CLASS HERO LYRICS
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 ***** 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

  • @andrewsfunk continue to live in your dream world my friend, every meal you eat, all the clothes you wear are the result of suffering. Global Capitalism causes sweat shops which have to be the greatest evidence of the exploitation of the proletariat. Socialism is the means of production under the control of workers, redistribution of wealth to ensure poverty does not exist and a heavy progressive tax system. How was the Soviet Union socialist if it did none of these, you are brainwashed.

  • woww i love your rendition, your voice fits this perfectly. the harmonics and backing vocals at the end were outstanding and the video was very well made. great job

  • @andrewsfunk I live in Yugoslavia before, and I live then better then now.
