Mr. Misunderstood |
Hey there, weird kid in your high-top shoes |
Sitting in the back of the class; |
I was just like you |
Always left out, never fit in |
Owning that path you’re walking in |
Mr. Misunderstood, Mr. Misunderstood |
Now, your buddies get their rocks off on Top 40 radio |
But you love your daddy’s vinyl, old-time rock and roll |
Elvis Costello, Ray Wylie Hubbard |
And think Jeff Tweedy is one bad mother |
Mr. Misunderstood, Mr. Misunderstood |
One day you’ll lead the charge, you’ll lead the band |
Guitar Hero with lightnin' hands |
And the girls will like your tattoos and the veins in your arms |
They’ll be helpless to your musical charms |
And they’ll all hold up their hands |
They’ll all wanna dance |
Mr. Misunderstood, Mr. Misunderstood |
First time I met Alabama Hannah, I was skinny as a rail |
Red hair tied up in a blue bandanna |
She was hotter than the Devil’s hell |
She turned me on to Back Porch Pickers |
Jackson Pollock, and gin |
Her daddy didn’t trust my intentions |
So he turned to his daddy’s old .410 |
I’m Mr. Misunderstood, Mr. Misunderstood |
Had an axe to grind, so off I went |
Mad at the sun for coming up again |
I lost religion, found my soul in the blues |
Rubbed the velvet off my blue suede shoes |
Yeah, everybody held up their hands |
And every soul on Beale Street danced |
With Mr. Misunderstood, Mr. Misunderstood |
So I went with it like a colt on my Plymouth |
Through the glass behind my rear-view |
Took a left when the world went right down 16th Avenue |
Played with fire and I played on ledges |
Every circus, stage, and county fair |
They tried to file my points, sand my edges |
And I just grew out my hair |
I’m Mr. Misunderstood, I’m Mr. Misunderstood |
They’re standing in line, chasing the buzz |
Til the next big things and already was |
And hell if they know what they’re trying to find |
If it ain’t that same old, been-done kind |
Yeah, gives the head-scratchers fits |
Wondering how in the hell they missed |
I’m Mr. Misunderstood, Mr. Misunderstood |
Hey there, weird kid in your high-top shoes |
Sitting in the back of the class; |
I was just like you |
Mr. Misunderstood (I understand) |
Mr. Misunderstood (I understand) |
Mr. Misunderstood (I understand) |
Mr. Misunderstood (I understand) |
Mr. Misunderstood (I understand) |
I’m Mr. Misunderstood (let's go out of here) |
