Nofx - Down With The Ship lyrics

rate me

It could have been helped, it might have been saved

With me at the helm, I could have found ways

To keep it afloat and find a new course

But I steered the ship right into the cliffs

The easy way out, a cowardly move

A short sighted plan made by a self-centered man

The crew stayed with the ship and bailed as one

They didn't know irreparable damage was done

They had so much pride and camaraderie

But that was all lost when they spotted me

Rowing to shore with treasure on board

A cowardly plan made by a self loathing man

Without regrets, without looking back

I choose to walk on the less beaten sociopath

With all the spoils of an island of one

I don't need dynasty, I don't need anyone

I knew the consequence when I plotted this trip

I'm not a man who'll go down with the ship
