The signs were there from an early age
Fists and boots were taking centre stage
Mother says it's the neighbourhood
Knowing soon her words are caked in blood
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
Wife beater
He steals the smile from her face
No happy endings in this place
The same excuses, "I tripped, I fell"
Knowing soon she'll return to hell
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
Wife beater
"I can't take no more of this life," she said
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
Wife beater
A quiet funeral cos there's no friends
A tragic story with a bitter end
Left his mark in this neighbourhood
She slit her wrists in a bath of blood
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
Wife beater
