Misunderstood

Talking in her sleep again

Reciting lines start to end

But shes not crazy

(knock on wood)

Just a little misunderstood

She takes a walk at 4am

Wakes the neighborhood again

And I find myself recalling everything she used to tell me

Aw yeah, alright, truth hurts inside

Aw yeah, thats right, you go around once in life

Everybody wants to be a part

Everybody loves a situation

Who would ever want to play the part

Of anonymous numbers on a governmental chart

Shes waiting tables the next day

She pulls a double then on her way

To an audition in hollywood, yeah,

A little misunderstood

We sit around the house

Waiting for the phone to ring

And I know she alone holds the key

To everything I want to be

Aw yeah, alright, truth hurts inside

Aw yeah, thats right, you go around once in life

Everybody wants to be a part

Everybody loves a situation

Who would ever want to play the part

Of anonymous numbers on a governmental chart

Everybody wants to be your friend

When youve got something you can give them

All Ive seen, bad and good, shes not crazy

Just a little misunderstood.

Aw yeah, all good, shes not crazy,

Just a little misunderstood.

Two years later youre a star

Whod have thought wed get this far? 

But Id give it all away if i

Could see you on that day again

When you quit work

And threw that coffee

At the manager jerk

You said, "close your eyes

Ive got a surprise

A house in the hills

And a car that drives by."

Aw yeah, alright, truth hurts, dont it? inside

Aw yeah, thats right, you go around once in life

Everybody wants to be a part

Everybody loves a situation

Who would ever want to play the part

Of anonymous numbers on a governmental chart

Everybody wants to be your friend

When youve got something you can give them

All Ive seen, bad and good, shes not crazy

Just a little misunderstood.

Aw yeah, all good, shes not crazy,

Just a little misunderstood.
