미로속의 마로속의 미로...

비틀즈 해체 이후 존 레논과 폴 메카트니는 서로 완전히 다른 길을 걷게 된다...

그들이 구축한 아성을 그대로 물려받기를 원한 폴 메카트니...

그리고 이를 거부하고 자신의 목소리를 담기로 한 존 레논...

Working class hero는 존 레논의 눈에 비친 세상의 모순이 극명하게 투영된 곡이다...

이 사회에서 살아남기 위해서는...

누군가를 끊임없이 짓밟고...

그러면서도 더 높은 무언가가 강요하는 논리에 순응하면서...

쾌락에 취해 하루하루 바보가 되어 가면서...

그렇게 Working class hero가 되어야 하는 것...

As soon as your 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
Working Class Hero is something to be
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 despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religon, sex and T.V.
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see
Working Class Hero is something to be
Working Class Hero is something to be

There's room at the top I'm 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
Working Class Hero is something to be

Yes , 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
