Baby, do you understand me now
Sometimes I feel a little mad
Well don't you know that no-one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to be bad


I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord please don't let me be misunderstood

***

Baby, 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


If I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I get my share
And that's one thing I never mean to do, 'cause I love you

***

Oh, oh, oh, baby, don't you know I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done
