Miss Understood
Talking in her sleep again,
Reciting lines, start to end,
She's not crazy, knock on wood
Just a little miss understood.
Takes a walk at 4 a.m.,
Wakes the neighborhood again,
And I found myself,
Recalling everything she used to tell me.
(chorus)
Oh yeah, alright,
Truth hurts, inside,
Oh yeah, that's 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.
Waiting table the next day,
She pulls a double and on her way,
To an audition in Hollywood,
Yeah, a little miss understood.
Sits around the house,
Waiting for the phone to ring,
And I know she alone,
Holds the key to everything I want to be.
(repeat chorus)
Two years later you're a star,
Who'd of thought we'd get this far,
But I'd 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,
Saying, close your eyes, I've got a surprise,
House in the hills and a car that drives by.
(chorus)
