4. Misunderstood
(Bebnum)
1. Does anyone understand me?
Do they know me now I wonder?
Does anyone know the life I lead?
The pressure that I’m under?
‘Cos even though no one else
Does cruelty like I can.
Underneath this hard exterior,
Is a tender loving man.
CHORUS (All)
So misunderstood...I’m sure I’m not that bad.
So misunderstood...now they say that I’m half mad!
And some misguided people criticised me for a while,
But they found it hard to mock me...from inside a crocodile!
So Misunderstood!
(All)
2. Can I make the people love me?
Make them see how great I am!
I really can’t find an answer,
I’m really in a jam.
I’ll make them build a pyramid,
Work their fingers to the bone.
It’ll be the greatest ever,
A place to call my own!
CHORUS (All)
So misunderstood...I’m sure I’m not that bad.
So misunderstood...now they say that I’m half mad!
And some misguided people criticised me for a while,
But they found it hard to mock me...from inside a crocodile!
So Misunderstood!
