For Jim

She lives with a broken man:
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns.

He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties,
But gravity always wins.
(Let him sing, for fuck's sake!)

I have no qualms with the words, but I still flinched when I read the first line, and recognised it bitterly for the sound it takes in the song.
