“Ms. Understood
I know how you’ve been crying
Ms. Understood
To see how you’ve been trying
Ms. Understood
And all the while you’ve been hiding
Ms. Understood

I found you there
Staring across the afternoon
From beneath the stairs
Of your ego grasping way’s
You caught me there
How deep you care there’s no denying
I was caught there
In such a woman’s stare

Ms. Understood
I know how you’ve been crying
Ms. Understood
I see how you’ve been trying
Ms. Understood
All the while you’ve been hiding
Ms. Understood

I saw you stare
From across the afternoon
Beneath those stairs
From your ego grasping way’s
You caught me there
How deep you care there’s no denying
I was caught there
Caught in such a woman’s stare

Take the lifeline
Headed for the West
I’ll even write you a byline
Let it put you to rest

Ms. Understood
Ms. Understood
Ms. Understood
Ms. Understood”
