Baby, do you understand me now?
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong, or seem to be badI'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 never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I got my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do 'cause I love youBaby, don't you know I'm just human
And I've got thoughts like any other man
And sometimes I find myself, alone, regretting
Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've doneBut I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Oh Lord, don't let me be misunderstood
Please don't let me be misunderstoodBaby, do you understand me now?
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong, or seem to be bad'Cause I'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 that all I have to do is worry
And then you're bound to see 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 never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I got my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do 'cause I love youOh, baby, don't you know I'm human
I have thoughts like any other man
And sometimes I find myself, alone, regretting
Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
