Whilst sipping my coffee, I saw...
the woman kill the man from next door,
she hit him on the head,
I'm sure he must be dead,
he's bleeding lying still on the floor.
The thought chills my bones to the core,
now I come to think of it, I'm sure
something must have been said
the wife saw red
and now her poor husband's no more.

I like your take on this... really quite dark.
'I'm sure he must be dead,
