For some reason I can see Ray Winstone singing this, standing in the rain in a dinner suit. Then he is on the floor of the flat dead, killed from a blow by a china horse, a Suffolk punch, ironically. He had pushed her too far.

lyrics

Pays for favours by the hour.
Goes to market to get flowers.
Wanders home between the showers.

In the middle distance there’s a room.
In the middle of the night you hear her call.

She took him down with a Suffolk punch.
The feint to the left was a big mistake.
A punch is the mouth is so offensive.

Hear her call.

The gap between the pushchair and the future
Is closing…

In the bus shelter she cowers.
Waiting bloody waiting.

Hear her call.
