I guess you have to have a problem
if you want to invent a contraption
First You Cause a train wreck
then you put me in traction
First came an action
then a reaction
But you can't switch around
for your own satisfaction
Well you burnt my house down
then got mad at my reaction

Well in every complicated situation
of the human relation
To make sense of it all
takes a whole lotta concentration
Well you can blame a baby
for her pregnant ma'
And if there's one of these
unavoidable laws
It's that you just can't take the effect
and make it the cause

You can't take the effect
and make it the cause
I did't rob a bank
because you made up the law
Blame me for robbing Peter
don't you blame Paul
You can't take the effect
and make it the cause

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
Well, I ain't saying I'm innocent
in fact the reverse
But if you're headed to the grave
you don't blame the hearse
You're like a little girl yelling at her brother
'cause you lost his ball

Well you keep blaming me for what you did
and that ain't all
The way you clean up a wreck is enough
to give one pause
You seem to forget
just how this all started
I'm reacting to you
because you left me broken hearted
See, you just can't take the effect
and make it the cause

You can't take the effect
and make it the cause
I didn't rob a bank, becuase
you made up the law
Blame me for robbing Peter
don't you blame Paul
You can't take the effect
and make it the cause
