Peter Hammill - "No rot" lyrics

USHER There will be no rot! No rot in Usher! We have lived with thunder, and with thunder shall we fall! MONTRESOR I cannot make you come but hear what I say. Send Madeline with me to some healthy place. USHER No rot! No rot in Usher! We have lived by lightning and but lightning shall we fall! No slide into slow decay, no shrivelling splendour no gradual ebbing away, no quiet surrender! No rot! No rot in Usher! We have lived as Titans and as Titans we must fall! USHER MONTRESOR Don't talk of rot Stop! No rot in Usher! Stop! Roderick, try and calm yourself Just tell me why I should! this cannot do you good. These thoughts... No! are folly. No! Everything I've tried to I have tried to help you tell you, you've misunderstood I've done everything I could. Come, why should we fight this way we have enough troubles. What was it we used to say? What was it we used to say? A problem shared is doubled! A problem shared is doubled! Ushers do not flee! Ushers to not flee! Montresors stand firm! Montresors stand firm! So we stand together, So we stand together, stand together stand together By dint of long and undisturbed endurance... we could defeat the House, my friend. VOICES OF We shall not THE HOUSE let him go! We shall not let him go!
