3. Misunderstood​

​

(Bebnum and Menkhat)

(rap)

Bebnum: Hey Menkhat?

Menkhat: Sir?

B: Can you help me please?

I have this sense of deep unease.

M: I hate to see you in a stew

Please tell me what’s been bothering you?

B: When I walked the street the other day 

The people turned and ran away!

M: If they got to know you, if they only tried…

They’d see the caring man inside!

​​​

Bebnum: Does anyone understand me?

Menkhat: Do they know you now I wonder?

B: Does anyone know the life I lead?

M: The pressure that you’re under?

B: ‘Cos even though no one else

M: Does cruelty like you can.

B: Underneath this hard exterior,

B and M: Is a tender loving man.

​

CHORUS (all)
So misunderstood...can he really be that bad?

Misunderstood...they all say that he’s half mad!

   And some misguided people criticised his ruling style…
They found themselves in the river Nile…

Inside a crocodile!

SO MISUNDERSTOOD!​
