Simon Says is about a girl who was lured in by a man and taken advantage of. She saw him as happy and friendly and she wanted that too.
Despite the childlike themes, it’s not age specific. Its meant to show her as being innocent, naive. Even the way I explained it in the above paragraph, she’s a girl, not a matured women. He is a man, who is mature and knows what he is doing.
That being said, she could also be a child. I didn’t want to specify that, but lead you to read the lyrics as you interpret them.
She was just an innocent girl who trusted this man, looked to him for guidance, and he betrayed that trust in the worst way. I can imagine being the type of person who would do that, but it happens. Hopefully not to any of you. Or to anyone else.
Love
Roxanne
