Can't you see what's going on
Come along gotta get with it
You're space bound and going strong
And he said
Come along lets rock
Shake your body don't stop
Cause I'm never out of fuel
You're good at talkin'
But at listenin' you ain't so cool
So you better get with it baby
Chorus
Earth to Mickey
When are you gonna land?
Earth to Mickey
When are you gonna land?
(Why can't you just come on down,
Down to my level here)
Tonight I'm watchin' you
And you wouldn't understand
How could you ever get so spaced out
And never ever land
I just wanna tell you
You're outta your mind
It'll take a little time
But I bet I can talk you down
There are unnurtured treasure
Right here on solid ground
So you better get with it baby
Repeat chorus
(Hear me talkin' to ya mickey)
Mickey's rap:
Excuse me but it's hard to hear
Cause I'm way up in the stratosphere
I caught your drift
But I still don't see
I changed my long distance company recently
I'm not a guy that's kinda shy
I gotta get home before my goldfish die
My friends say I caught your eye
They say you like the way I tie my tie
I don't know why you wanna stare
Don't touch... I just combed my hair
(push)
Please talk me down
Where's the ground?
Hold on you better slow down
You might be 'fore your time
I think you got kicked out
From the white school of bump and grind
Mickey come along let's walk
Can we have a little talk?
You've been busted in mid-flight
Whenever you're puzzled you just
Put on your big red light
Chaka's rap:
You know I know what they mean now
When they say that you're all dressed up
And nowhere to go
Mickey really I been tryin to talk to you
All night I've been lookin at you
And lookin at you
And tryin to talk and talk
But you just don't listen
You're on some eternal flight
I just can't seem to make you make sense
Mickey, Mickey
Repeat chorus
Ad lib to fade
