Lyrics
CARRIE'S ON AGAIN
She changes moods in the middle of a dream
Starts to fade black to grey.
Lost in space, she forgets her place.
She's losing touch with her sanity.
Don't pull the trigger, she'll turn you on
Fire in her eyes, she'll burn you.
Queen of the night, she's coming on
And when she's on, Carrie's really on.
Carrie's on again, she's out of the blue
Carrie's on again, she's on to you
Carrie's on again with energy to burn
Carrie's on again, don't miss your turn.â_1
She gambles with love, dangles her keys
Don't play the odds, she plays the tease.
On the frying pan, watch her dance.
You're losing step, you're in her trance.
Feel the heat coming off her tan.
When the smoke clears, she wants a man.
Heat of the moment, don't let it cool.
Don't turn it off, don't be a fool.
