| Ooh, let me take a candle to a cellar tonight
|
| And I’d like to take some matches there 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
|
| It’s not difficult to see that you’re young and selfish
|
| 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
|
| 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 |
