It Certainly Appears Broken, Minerva

The title just popped into my head unannounced one day and I had to try to work from that. About a girl with a broken radio and the repairman who would do anything to find her a new one and win her love…

It certainly appears broken, Minerva:

Well it certainly appears that this is broken, Minerva,
I hate to break the bad news to you
but it doesn’t look good.
And in my professional opinion
you’re going to need yourself
a new radio.

But I’ve got the time and nothing else to do
than to scour the pawnshops for you
all day and all night long.
And if I could find that perfect radio
then maybe you could be my baby, oh.
We’d dance to every song.

But for now it certainly appears that this one’s broken, Minerva,
I hate to be the one to break it to you, honey,
but this does not look good.
And it’s my professional opinion
That you’d better find yourself
A new radio.

But I’ve got the time and nothing else to do
Than to scour every pawnshops for you, honey,
all day and all night long.
And if I could find that magic radio
then maybe you could be my baby, oh.
We’d dance to every song.

But for now, this one certainly appears to be broken, Minerva…

Smashing!! You've got really strong melodies, so easy to settle into this. Damn. Two favourites in two listens! It's a shame I got to go to work!
