NOFX - Your Last Resort

Did you think that because I was so depraved, I needed to be saved?
I'll never be well-behaved 'cause I'm told to
You think if you stole me, you'd be able to control me
'Cause I'm wearing your ring, you think if you shamed me
You might be able to tame such a wild thing
You knew who I was when we met and you always knew how to respect
You never dared to suspect even when I suspected you
'Cause your love was true

You were a pirate ship that was listing
I was a 42-year aged port
Was I the first protected cove you found in the storm?
Or was I just your last resort?

I consented to being shanghaied, cause I craved a kidnapping
I was battened down with minor chords
As we set sail into the dark and sharpest sea

We were called a train in a shipwreck
'Cause we were eager to walk the plank
We swam warm waters of sins of the flesh
And watched as our beautiful ship sank
Being the most wanted and most hated, we still navigated
Every ocean, every storm and every sea
Without noticing mutiny

Two toys, so badly broken
Two toys that can't be fixed
Will our hearts ever meet in the same venue while open?
Or have they both been eighty-sixed?
I'm still in detoxification and after all that I've been through
Quitting drugs was the easiest part
The hardest thing was detoxing from you

Was I just your last resort?
Was I just your last resort?
I thought I'd be the last person you'd ever court
Not just your last resort
