My cover of "Epitaph for My Heart" by the Magnetic Fields.
Artwork generated by DALL-E.
Prompt: "Faded grainy film photograph of wilting tulips in a vase on a table bleached out by the sun next to a tall bright window with white linen curtain blowing in breeze"
lyrics
"Caution: To prevent electric shock, do not remove cover
No user-serviceable parts inside
Refer servicing to qualified
Service personnel"
Let this be the epitaph for my heart
Cupid put too much poison in the dart
This is the epitaph for my heart because it's gone, gone gone
And life goes on and on and on and death goes on, world without end
And you're not my friend
Who will mourn the passing of my heart?
Will its little droppings climb the pop chart?
Who'll take its ashes and,
Singing, fling them from the top of the Brill Building?
And life goes on,
And dawn, and dawn and death goes on,
World without end and you're
Not my friend
