I was standing in line
Getting hit on at the bank
What kind of man do you think I am?
Because I have a bad haircut
Because I wear a leather jacket

I can see the traces, oh
You show a bit of empathy
You'd be better off in space, babe
Using some kind of telepathy

I'm a reject of the society
Your career might have
Maybe with credit history
You're so square, I won't be your pet
I'll find another teller
Go and give me the slip

I was cutting some tracks
Getting hit on at the studio
What kind of man do you think I am?
Because my shades are cheap plastic
Because my suede shoes are red

I can hear the swish swish, oh
Of the wheels of the edit tape
Sticky situations, oh
That's not one that I'll take

I write pop songs
Something called groovy
That does not mean I get fruity
You're the producer
Now get on with your work
Understand my proposition
Don't get your feelings hurt

I'm misunderstood
I'm misunderstood
I'm misunderstood

I was taking my time
Getting sexy at the Briefs show
I don't need no one to hold my hand
Not the girls at the record store
Baby, I'm an independent man, yeah
