The Fall Of The House Of Harding
- Genre:Folk
- Year of Release:2002
Lyrics
I was burdened by the hopes of an ailing failing family
It fell to me to marry to preserve the family fame
Mother's stupid snobbery, my father's desperate gambling
Combined to lose the deeds to all we owned except our name
And so mother brings me heiresses, the weak-chinned and the widowed
The simpering and whimpering, they queue to be my wife
And I treat them all with diffidence, even feign an interest
But I regret I didn't save my elder brother's life
It's goodbye...
May the family hall fall into ruins all around us
Collapse onto my mother and her evil little schemes
