“Tomorrow Wendy” by Andy Prieboy

Andy Prieboy put out "Tomorrow Wendy" in 1990 to launch his solo debut, ...Upon My Wicked Son, singing it as a duet with Johnette Napolitano. It's a bleak portrait drawn from life: Wendy was a woman Prieboy had known since childhood in East Chicago, Indiana, who drifted into drugs and prostitution and, after an HIV diagnosis, chose to end her life with a heroin overdose rather than die of an AIDS-related illness.

Prieboy described the song as Wendy talking to her own reflection, full of the rage she felt, and he worked the state of his hometown's economy into it too. Napolitano recorded it again that same year with Concrete Blonde for their third album, Bloodletting.
