A Guilty Conscience And A Broken Heart

I went to the morgue today to see you,
I knew you'd end up there right from the start,
The coroner he told me,
You died of natural causes,
A guilty conscience and a broken heart.

The irony of Loudon Wainwright III writing and singing this is beyond compare. I guess he can play someone other than himself. (This is from the "Undeclared" DVD extras.)

Watch.

Here's a noisy version from his latest tour, which also includes him singing Peter Blegvad's "Daughter".

Grab an umbrella. Unleash hell. Your mileage may vary. Results not typical. If swelling continues past four hours, consult a physician.
