Yes. A working class hero is something to be. This song is great and it gives you a lot to think about. And I agree about how John was taken from us. RIP, John.

Amazing Song.

[/offtopic] John was writing again, he was recording an album. John Lennon was the greatist Singer/Song Writer/Political Protester (if thats a word) of the world, Too bad he was taken from us, We will miss you John Lennon!! and Thank you

This song is about how at an early age we are programmed by society and culture.

John is not celebrating working class heros.
He is showing how people are controlled by the programming of culture and society to make them think that being a part of the working class makes them respected heros when in fact they are just being used as pawns.

This song, at least the way I see it, is not about avradge joes' being heros. It's talking bout socity's rules and prejudges and how if you don't fit them you are an oucast("They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool"); it also shows it's controll over people "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". It also puts it down with lines like "and you think you're so clever, classles, and free. But you're still fuckin' pesents as far as I can see" and "there's room at the top they are telling you still. but, first, you must learn to smile as you kill; if you wan't to be like to folks on the hill."
