Victory Lyrics

I stumble in and in
You fit me with those angel wings
Set me goal
Set me high
Set it up I'm in the sky
The storm is gone
(and the storm is gone)
And the temperature's high
(and the temperature's high)
And Delilah is dining
(and Delilah is dining)
At my table
Tell any how how how
How lucky we are
Angel at my table
God in my car
Get it at sea
Take a ship
I'd christen her 'Victory'
She'd make it

Vic-to-ry, Vic-to-ry

Come on boys
Let's push it hard
You bump down, push your motor car
Come on boys
You've done us proud
You sweat 'til I'll mop it right off your brow

Vic-to-ry, Vic-to-ry
Vic-to-ry, Vic-to-ry

'Til the storm is gone
('til the storm is gone)
And the temperature's high
(and the temperature's high)
And delilah is dining
(and delilah is dining)
At my table

'Til the storm is gone
('til the storm is gone)
And the temperature's high
(and the temperature's high)
And delilah is dining
(and delilah is dining)
At my table
Hey

Cover art for Victory lyrics by PJ Harvey

I'm pretty sure it's either about Joan of Arc or Jael (she freed israel from some sort of oppressor) Like storm as metaphor for battle? Just an idea that goes with the concept of the album. O Stills (Our Lady, Star of the Sea/Virgin Mary), Happy and Bleeding (Eve), Sheela-Na-Gig (Salome), Hair (Delilah), etc.
