I Won - Lyrics by Sundays


Lyrics
ooh, let me take a candle to a cellar tonightand I'd like to take some matches [there/then] and set it alight
I can't, 'cause I've seen those kind of places beforeooh, I'd like to have a party in a cellar tonightand 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 proudbut I don't know why it's hard to get to sleep in my houseooh, I have to pull the blankets up to cover my headand I have to pull the blankets right upbut I don't know why it's hard to get to sleep in my housewell you keep following the funeral pyreand it's not difficult to see that you'reyoung and selfish, and liberty and money, don't godon't go...let me take a candle to a cellar tonightyeah, you should see the parties we've had beforegimme the time, gimme the timegimme 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 proudbut God only knows why it's hard to get to sleep in my houseooh [your scheme is in your smile]ooh [you sleep and sin in your Soho hole]well you keep following the funeral pyreit's not difficult to see that you'rebeautiful and young, and [critical of] nothingand you keep following the funeral pyreit's not difficult to see that you'rebeautiful and young, and liberty and money, don't go
