I guess you have to have a probelm
if you want to invent a contraption
First you cause a trainwreck
then they put me in traction
well first came an action
and then a reaction
but you can't switch 'em around
for your own satisfaction
well you burnt my house down
and then got mad at my reaction
well in every complicated situation
of a human relation,
making sense of it all
takes a whole lot of concentration
well you can't blame a baby
for her pregnant ma
and if there's one of these
on her auto applause
its just that you can't just take the effect and make it the cause
well you can't take the effect
and make it the cause
i didn't rob a bank
because you made up the law
blame me for robbing peter
but don't you blame paul
can't take the effect
and make it the cause
i aint the reason that you gave me
no reason to return your call
you built a house of cards
and got shocked when you saw them fall
well i aint saying i'm innocent
in fact the reverse
but if your heading to the grave
you don't blame the hearse
you're like a little girl yelling at her brother
cos you lost his ball
you keep blaming me for what you did
but that aint all
the way you clean up a wreck
is enough to get one caused
you seem to forget just how this song started
i'm reacting to you
cos you left me broken hearted
its just that you can't just take the effect and make it the cause
well you can't take the effect
and make it the cause
i didn't rob a bank
cos you made up the law
blame me for robbing peter
don't you blame paul
can't take the effect
and make it the cause
The lyrics to this are just a little bit wrong...
