Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo Hey, Carrie Anne Hey, Carrie Anne When we were at school our games were simple; I played the janitor, you played the monitor Then you played with older boys and prefects; What's the attraction in what they're doing? Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? You were always something special to me; Quite independent, never caring You lost your charm as you were aging; Where is your magic disappearing? Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? You're so, so like a woman to me (Oh like a woman to me) So, so like a woman to me Like a woman to me (Instrumental) Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? People live and learn but you're still learning; You use my mind and i'll be your teacher When the lesson's over you'll be with me; Then i'll hear the other people saying Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? Hey, Carrie Anne, What's your game now, can anybody play? Carrie-Anne (Carrie-Anne) Carrie-Anne

La chanson aborde les souvenirs d'une relation d'école, centrée sur une jeune fille nommée Carrie-Anne. Le narrateur évoque avec nostalgie leurs jeux innocents et leur complicité, mais remarque que Carrie-Anne a évolué, se tournant vers des garçons plus âgés. Il se demande ce qui l'attire dans ce changement et se questionne sur sa personnalité et son charme, désormais altérés par le temps. Le contexte semble être celui d'une réflexion sur la jeunesse et la perte d'innocence. Le narrateur, en tant qu'observateur attendri, cherche à comprendre ce que Carrie-Anne devient, tout en se posant des questions sur leurs rôles respectifs et ce qu'elle souhaite vraiment à ce stade de sa vie.
