Baby, do you understand me now?
Sometimes I feel a little mad
Don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong, it seems so badI'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodBaby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems all I do is worry
And then I show my other side'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodIf I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I'd never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I get my share
That's one thing that I never mean to do, 'cause I love you'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodIf I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I'd never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I get my share
And that's one thing I never mean to do, 'cause I loveOh baby, don't you know I'm human
And have thoughts like any other one
And sometimes I find myself alone
Regrettin' some foolish things that I have done'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodNo, no, no, misunderstood
Oh yeah, yeah, don't let me be misunderstood
Please don't let me be misunderstood
