On a long and windy hilltop beneath a roof of tin
In a little wallpapered bedroom i done my growin'
'twas there i dreamt my dreams,and there i hung my jeans
And wandered through my puberty quite early
My mother was a tight knot bound up with false guilt
Strapped up in her feeling a wall she had built
An independent girl in a dark and cruel world
She'd lost the way to say, "ok, now lay back"
We disagreed on most things, i shouted peace and love
The family of mankind, the symbol of the dove
She only saw the surface of things before her face
But i was young and argued on for hours
My father he liked poetry, a scholar he might have made
Had he not been born a poor boy barefoot and underpaid
So the man worked with his hands up and down the land
His dreams forgot he thought that i must follow
With his marxist worker's wisdom he'd read a thing or two
He once had been a mason but he never followed through
Always kind and thoughtful, smelling of machine oil
And he read me poetry of visionaries
I flunked my way to college, a looser kind of school
Bop re-bopin ' play time arty, feeling cool
A chance to live an artists diggin' the ravin' scene
Reading kerouac and ginsberg well juiced
I was not academic, art and english lit
The history of mankind i liked that a bit
What was i to do? the choices they were few
I downright disgrace to the working classes
I downright disgrace to the working classes
I downright disgrace to the working classes
I downright disgrace to the working classes
