She was pushing 40 when she made that video. Took guts.

Weird Al or should do a Hey Mickey parody of pedo Disney. LOL

Oh Mickey, and you Pluto, help me understand
You make me feel so good when you rub me with your hand
Oh Mickey, you're so pretty, in your dress my friend
It's girls like you, Mickey
Oh come and do me Mickey, do me Mickey
I can't hold my farts, Mickey

A lot of one hit wonders had their one hits with covers like this.

Mickey and Come on Eileen from the same year are two of the best one-hit wonders of all time.

MTV was awesome for the first couple of years.

Definitely visionary! It’s as if they knew Beavis and Butthead needed material!

The quintessential one hit wonder.

and it was a cover tune, originally performed as "Kitty" by the British pop group Racey.

Also, from Wikipedia: Rock critic Robert Christgau pointed out she was offering anal sex:

"So come on and give it to me any way you can.
Any way you want to do it, I'll take it like a man"

That entire MTV era was full of one hit (video) wonders.

Fun facts....

IIRC, the original version was done by a UK group - Toni’s cover came later.

A friend and world class mastering engineer mastered her album with “Hey Mickey” - his version has very good sound quality.
