This song just makes SOO much sense.
White Stripes = Genius
Read through and try to make out
what the meaning is behind it.
Listening to the song might help.
=)
I guess you have to have a problem
If you want to 'vent a contraption
Well you cause a trainwreck
And then you put me in traction
First came an action
And then a reaction
But you can't switch around
For your own satisfaction
Well you burnt my house down
And then got mad at my reaction
Well in every complicated situation
There's a human relation
To make sense of it all
Takes a whole lot of concentration
Well you can't blame her 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
Cause 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
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 your heading to the grave
Don't blame the hearse
You're like a little girl yelling at her brother
Cause you lost his ball
You keep blaming me for what you did
And that aint all
The way you clean up the wreck
Is enough to give one pause
You seem to forget just how this song started
I'm reacting to you
Cause 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
Cause 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
Thankyou
will YOU be my escape?
