Billy took a shower

Combed his hair back

And took a long look at himself

The wardrobe door was open

All her dresses were gone

Mickey's well known velvet voice

Oozed out of his radio

He picked up his car keys

And screwed up her note



Billy was held up by a red light

Next to the court of appeal

He thought for a moment

Then banished the doubt from his mind

Mickey had told her

In front of his listeners

"This man's not worth waiting for!"

And now he would pay

For his precious advice



Radio Lover, radio love

The wardrobe was open

All her dresses were gone

He might as well take out his gun



Billy parked his car outside the station

As it was closing down

And summoning up his courage

Read her crumpled words one more time

Mickey's voice never purred again on

Stereo radio

And her words ran into blue puddles

Where Mickey was lying



Radio lover, Radio love
