Cause and Effect

Lyricist:     Composer:

I can't laugh to hard, I'm on a diet
I'm trying to lose myself,
You ought to try it
Just starve for 6 days straight,
Oh it's a riot
Every Sunday night

I binge and I barf, cause I carry the scars of an eight-year-old
Who's mother applied the same rules to a kids body, as her own

I think you'll leave me soon,
Though I've no proof of it
But I'll make it easier for you,
By being a little bitch
And this is just a theory
But I think the reason,
Why I'm scared you'll go is

The only male influence I've had,
After daddy up and left,
Were my mother's weekend lovers and
Their alcoholic breaths

I'll tell you what caused it,
If you handle the effects (the effects 2x)
Yes I'll tell you what caused it,
If you handle the effects (the effects 2x)
I'll tell you what caused it,
If you handle the effects
Yes I'll tell you what caused it,
If you handle the effects

I can't laugh to hard, I'm on a diet
I'm trying to lose myself,
You ought to try it
Just starve for 6 days straight Oh it's a riot,
Every Sunday night
