'Lying back and thinking of England' is what a dutiful wife is supposed to do during sex. The implication is that the sex is being forced on the protagonist by the other person, and that they don't really want it. Think missionary position, counting the cracks in the ceiling, etc.
"What is it I must do to pay for all my crimes..." etc are some very, very sad lyrics.
