The Donner Party Lyrics

	作曲 : Creager
	The similarities and situation
	Between the
	Donner party and the colonial pilgrims
	Is both appalling, frightening, and incomplete
	In both cases, you'll find one
	A fairly large group of ill prepared green horns
	Pitting themselves against nature and each other
	Two, an insufficient willingness to endure
	The very real hardships of frontiering
	And three coincidental misfortune at every turn
	Number three coincidental misfortune at every turn
	Disasters of both camps were initially
	Brought about by departure, delay and desert, inertia
	Which caused our heroes to begin their journeys
	At absolutely retarded times weather wise
	If fantasy is the refuge of a frightened man
	And a castle in the air is a safe harbor for a foolish few
	Just imagine living in a hut buried twelve feet below the snow
	With the sight and smell of the scattered carcasses
	Of loved ones at your feet
	It is the lay of the land, just another day
	I would like to propose that cannibalism was indeed rampant
	Among America's earliest settlers the pilgrims
	Who?The pilgrims
	For what does settler imply, if not the willingness to settle?
	To settle for a meal of human flesh if my thoughts on the subject
	Are to be believed
	In conclusion, spread the word of this
	Look to the night sky, and hark back to our forefathers' shortcomings
	And your own
	As you cut your meat and lay the groundwork for a new tomorrow
