[Intro: John Lennon]
Okay, you lot, can you shut up? 'Cause this door's open. Why don't you go in the other room or shut up or somethin'?
[Verse: John Lennon]
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 fuckin' crazy you can't follow their rules
[Refrain: John Lennon]
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
[Interlude: John Lennon, Yoko Ono, ?]
That sounds great. You want to take it once, and...?
Yes, yes, okay. Is the guitar too loud still?
It's alright
I can play it with my thumb, you see. Like that
Maybe that... try that one, yes, it's beautiful
Okay
Can you not tap, John?
Oh, with my foot, you mean?
Yeah
Oh, that's impossible. I'll take my shoe off. Still gonna tap a bit. We'll have to do it like Blackbird
You know, your [?] every quality of your voice, when your voice comes out, when you're a little bit distant from the mic it's very effective, but when you - the minute, the minute you come...
Yes, yes. Well that - I close my eyes and I find myself there, right by the mic, you see
[Verse: John Lennon]
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 can't function at all
[Interlude: John Lennon, Yoko Ono]
Bugalugs, bugalugs, wrong word, you cunt
Why don't you just sort of uh, do it a bit lightly, you know, all the way through? I mean, if you [?]
Oh yeah, I'm gonna use the pick, yeah
You wanna do that?
No, no, let me go
[Verse: John Lennon]
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
[Refrain]
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
[Outro]
If you want to be a hero, well, just follow me
