They Don' Care Lyrics - Dri

I got a letter in the mail just the other day 

Opened it up, this is what it had to say: 

"Wouldn't you please give us the pleasure 

Of having you at our table tonite? 

From, the donner family" 

We've been hungry for such a long time 

And we've eaten our dogs and rawhide 

We've got half of our family on ice 

They would not want the rest of us to die 

They would not want the rest of us to die 

They don't care 

They would not have us starve to death 

We're so cold 

We're freezing and there's nothing left 

They don't care 

I'm sure that they wouldn't mind 

It's so bad 

Half of us are snow blind 

It's too late now, we can never go back 

We can make up for the protein we lack 

Four days of no food have left us all weak 

I feel like I can't stand on my own two feet 

My own two feet, my own two feet 

We've been waiting for such a long time 

For some word of help or some sign 

That someone's coming to our rescue 

Until then, we'll do what we have to 

Until then, we'll do what we have to 

They don't care 

They would not have us die this way 

It's like this 

We have to find some food today 

They don't care 

They knew what we were going through 

They don't care 

This is what it's come to 

We never felt like we could really do it 

Now weare just thankful we all lived through it 

We ate those people because we were hungry 

Yeah, we're survivors of the donner family 

The donner family 

We've been hungry for such a long, long time 

And we've eaten our dogs and rawhide 

We've got half of our family on ice 

They would not want the rest of us to die 

They would not want the rest of us to die 

They don't care 

They would not have us starve to death 

We're so cold 

We're freezing and there's nothing left 

They don't care 

I'm sure that they wouldn't mind 

It's so bad 

Half of us are snow blind 

I got a letter in the mail just the other day 

Opened it up, this is what it had to say: 

"wouldn't you please give us the pleasure 

Of having you at our table tonite? 

From, the donner family" 

The donner family 

The donner family
