INTRO:


  


VERSE 1:
                                                          
I guess you have to have a problem if you want to invent a contraption
                                                   
First you cause a train wreck, then they put me in traction, mmm
      
Well, first came an action and then a reaction
        
But you can't switch 'em 'round for your own satisfaction
                                                
Well, you burnt my house down, then got mad at my reaction


VERSE 2:
                                               
Well, in [bad word] situation of a human relation
                                                  
Makin' sense of it all takes a whole lot of concentration, mmm
                
Well, you can't blame a baby for her pregnant ma
       
And if there's one of these unavoidable laws
              N.C.                N.C.               
It's that you just can't take the effect and make it the cause

No,


 [bad word] 
                
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 robbin' Peter but don't ya blame Paul
      N.C.
Can't take the effect and make it the cause


   /c 


VERSE 3:
                                                         
I ain't 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, heh
                    N.C.                  N.C.
Yeah, well, I ain't sayin' I'm innocent, in fact, the reverse
              N.C.
But if you're headed to the grave, you don't blame the hearse
                                                                 
You're like a little girl yellin' at her brother 'cause you lost his ball

Yeah,


VERSE 4:
                                                       
Well, you keep blamin' me for what you did, but that ain't all
                                                   
The way you clean up a wreck is enough to give one pause, yeah!
          N.C.              N.C.
Well, you seem to forget just how this all started
    N.C.
I'm reactin' to you because you left me broken-hearted
                                                
See, you just can't take the effect and make it the cause
