It's likely that the text you pasted is in Rich Text format, which can contain its own margin and tab stop information which is independent of the object's text settings.
Easy way to find out is when you have a text insertion point (or a string of text selected) in the object, the rulers will show the custom margins, etc.
Hope that helps,
