The colours look different in Photoshop, which is colour managed, to the colours in a different application which is not colour managed. So armed with those two profiles, the colour management system will convert the numbers in the document to the numbers that must be sent to the device in order that the correct colours are displayed. So with a monitor profile that is built to represent the specific monitor (or a printer profile built to represent the specific printer, ink and paper combination) then the colour management system can predict exactly what colours will be shown if it sends specific pixel values to that device. It should describe exactly what colours the device is capable of showing and, how the device will respond when sent certain values. This is the job of the monitor/printer & paper profile.
