Lyrics distilled to three lines of verse
Requested by: Anonymous
My crush on this boy
has me shouting out his name,
over and over.
(Dianne)
Mickey seems clueless
or a tease about her crush.
Don’t leave her alone.
(Earl)
Mickey's not too bright,
but evidently pretty--
and that's what she wants.
(Pat)
Mickey (Single-1982)

The Wikipedia entry for this song says that Toni Basil's hit was a cover of "Kitty" with the name changed to "Mickey" to describe her crush on Mickey Dolenz (from the Monkees). I believe this source explains how both Earl and I ended up using "crush" in our poems. It's not clear if Pat thinks Mickey Dolenz is pretty.
Well Mickey is fine and blows her mind, so that's all good.
