DEEP PURPLE

- Wrong Man Lyrics

I wasn't in the room
When the action was goin' down
I may have been there once
But at the time I was out of town

I'm seeing strange fruit
They're saying, "Off with his head"
And one way or another
I'll end up dead

You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I'll do what I can

I plead not guilty to the charges
You've laid out on your desk
I know what you're thinking
"Oh yeah, this is a DSF"

I think I'm Prime Ministerial material
But I can't lie to you
So I'm out of the running
But from here in my cell I imagine
"Oh, wouldn't that be something?"

You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I'll do what I can

Can you hear me up there?
Can you hear me up there?

You got the wrong man
You don't understand
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
I do what I can

You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong guy
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man
You got the wrong man

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Deep Purple's 'Wrong Man' poetically expresses the discontent and the hopelessness of a person who is wrongly accused by metaphors like 'strange fruit' and 'out of the running' which emphasizes the unfairness of the situation and the character's feeling of being imprisoned and not understood. Wrong man lyrics strongly focuses on angst, despair, anger, reflection, and solitude. Concurrently, the song emphasizes the significance of innocence and wrongful accusation, futility and despair, and imagination and aspiration.
