[Verse 1]
Please, Miss Fried
He don't mean to be mean
He just needs to leave
He hopes, he does not
Cause you inconvenience
Why can't you see?
He says, "Please, don't be sad for me"

[Verse 2]
Oh, Miss Fried
Please believe you're his queen
He must fight for his dreams
Lovely, Miss Fried
He will too miss you
He just needs to be free
He says, "If I should ever cause you to bleed
Don't pretend to be naive"
Don't be naive

[Chorus]
Don't take him wrong, let him be
Sometimes he feels like he ought to be alone, alone
Don't take him wrong, let him be
Sometimes he feels like he ought to be alone, alone

[Outro]
He says, "Please don't be sad for me"
"Please don't be sad for me"

No Doubt formed in Anaheim, California in 1986. They have created a decade-defining style and have arguably become one of the most recognized bands of their time. The band has consisted of vocalist and frontwoman Gwen Stefani, guitarist Tom Dumont, bassist Tony Kanal, and drummer Adrian Young, as well as several former members—including Gwen’s older brother Eric Stefani.

They found mainstream success following the release of their third studio album Tragic Kingdom in late 1995. It eventually landed at the top of the Billboard charts in 1996, and has sold over 8 million copies as of 2012.
