Then they expect you to pick a career

Up until today, I always thought that the lyric in the Lennon song "Working Class Hero" was "a working class hero is something to fear", as opposed to it actually being "something to be".

That dramatically changes the meaning/feeling of the song (depressing in the latter, as intended - inspiring in the former, in an "overthrow" sort of way).

Although it would explain the stupid (in my previous understanding of the lyrics) juxtaposition of the line "When you can't really function you're so full of fear" just prior to the main lyric (two lines in a row ending in "fear", silly).

Anyway, CARE.
