Taking The Mickey Out Of ...

(with apologies to Toni Basil)

Hey Ricky
you've been around all year
and that's a little long. 
You think you've got it right but I think you've got it wrong. 
Why can't we say goodbye and then you can go home?
Ricky,
when you say you will 
it always means you won't. 
You're givin' me the chills
Ricky

Oh Ricky 
what a pity you don't understand. 
You take me by the heart when you take the bat in hand. 
Oh Ricky
you're so pretty 
can't you understand.
Oh Ricky 
It's batsmen like you 
Ricky
ooh what you used to do 
Ricky
Do 
Ricky
Do
Ricky
don't break my heart 
Ricky.

Hey Ricky
now when you go out there to bat 
you're never gonna score 
if you use your pads like that 
You're getting rather slow
Ricky. 
Anyway you want to do it
Just take it like a man. 
But please 
Ricky
don't make it worse 
Ricky. 
Oh Ricky
what a pity you don't understand. . . . 
Oh Ricky
what a pity you don't understand. . . . 
Oh Ricky
what a pity you don't understand. .

  1. You had to go and get that song stuck in my head, didn't you? As if we didn't get enough of it in the 80s... Nice cover though :)
