huh.
I gotta say, the story of "Mickey" makes a lot more sense when you find out it's a cover and was written for a male singer feeling baffled and cockteased. I never did understand how she flipped from "Take me home, arsehole" to "I'll let you do me up the bum" without an intervening narrative structure.
Also I am not unfamiliar with Racey how am I just finding this out now.
Well that was a rabbit hole!
