Cock Sparrer - You Lost The War Lyrics
Work all your life then sell your job, oh Lordy
Walk down the street and get punched in the gob, oh Lordy
Your kids get threatened when they go to school
And they don't even know what for
That's when you know you lost the war
Prison like a holiday camp, oh Lordy
Gone for a minute and your car gets clamped, oh Lordy
You play the game like they tell you to
And still you end up poor
That's when you know you lost the war
The crooks all laugh coz you're such a mug, oh Lordy
The banks say 'We ain't got enough', oh Lordy
Then someone comes in the middle of the night
And steals what you worked hard for
And everybody thinks they've got a say
The simple truth is you're just in the way
People marching in the street, oh Lordy
Placards waving fifty deep, oh Lordy
Someone else takes over
And it's just like before
That's when you know you lost the war
And everybody thinks they've got a say
The simple truth is you're just in the way
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest, oh Lordy
Just coz he wasn't like the rest, oh Lordy
They told it was freedom you were fighting for
A country fit for heroes, a paradise for sure
And when you asked for help they kicked you out the door
That's when you know you lost the war

🇬🇧 💕 🇺🇸
the first real follow up to shock troops...but running riot in 84 will always be my favorite.
Where can i find lyrics?
Here they are!
Work all your life then sell your job, Oh Lordy
Walk down the street and get punched in the gob, Oh Lordy
Your kids get threatened when they go to school
And they don't even know what for
That's when you know you lost the war
Prison like a holiday camp, Oh Lordy
Gone for a minute and your car gets clamped, Oh Lordy
You play the game like they tell you to
And still you end up poor
That's when you know you lost the war
The crooks all laugh coz you're such a mug, Oh Lordy
The banks say 'We ain't got enough', Oh Lordy
Then someone comes in the middle of the night
And steals what you worked hard for
That's when you know you lost the war
And everybody thinks they've got a say
The simple truth is you're just in the way
People marching in the street, Oh Lordy
Placards waving fifty deep, Oh Lordy
Someone else takes over
And it's just like before
That's when you know you lost the war
(Instrumental)
And everybody thinks they've got a say
The simple truth is you're just in the way
Fifteen men on a dead man's chest, Oh Lordy
Just coz he wasn't like the rest, Oh Lordy
They told it was freedom
You were fighting for
A country fit for heros
A paradise for sure
And when you asked for help
They kicked you out the door
That's when you know you lost the war
probably my favourite track on the album.
