I Won lyrics

ooh, let me take a candle to a cellar tonight
and I`d like to take some matches [there/then] and set it alight
I can`t, `cause I`ve seen those kind of places before

ooh, I`d like to have a party in a cellar tonight
and I`d love to have a party but it wouldn`t be right
I shan`t, `cause I`ve seen those kind of people before

I won the war in the sitting room
I won the war but it cost me
I won the war and I feel proud
but I don`t know why it`s hard to get to sleep in my house

ooh, I have to pull the blankets up to cover my head
and I have to pull the blankets right up
but I don`t know why it`s hard to get to sleep in my house

well you keep following the funeral pyre
and it`s not difficult to see that you`re
young and selfish, and liberty and money, don`t go

don`t go...

let me take a candle to a cellar tonight
yeah, you should see the parties we`ve had before
gimme the time, gimme the time
gimme the watchword, gimme whatever you like
([soon we`ll be free])

I won the war in the sitting room
I won the war but it cost me
I won the war and I feel proud
but God only knows why it`s hard to get to sleep in my house

ooh [your scheme is in your smile]
ooh [you sleep and sin in your Soho hole]

well you keep following the funeral pyre
it`s not difficult to see that you`re
beautiful and young, and [critical of] nothing

and you keep following the funeral pyre
it`s not difficult to see that you`re
beautiful and young, and liberty and money, don`t go
