I'd like to point out that the speaker in this song seems to be Sweet William, or could very well be. Listen to that song and then Jenny Again again and tell me you don't hear it. Clearly the murder in this song is caused by jealousy over the lover named Jenny, and though the lover is addressed as "you" in Sweet William, the murder there is clearly still driven by jealousy and affection over the girl. Either way I love both songs dearly.
