What Causes That Lyrics

What Causes That Text

---

[Zangler]
She's so full of trickery,
Life is bitter as chicory,
Bitterness fills my cup.

[Bobby]
I'm sorry you brought that up.
Once I thought I'd search around
For the little church around
The corner, but now I see.

[Both]
It never was meant to be.

[Zangler]
Once she used to praise me.

[Bobby]
Why is she so high hat?

[Zangler]
Boy, does she amaze me.

[Both]
Tell me what causes that?!

[Bobby]
When I'm away from her I start despairing.

[Zangler]
You ought to know by now what causes that!
I'm growing balder from the hair I'm tearing.

[Bobby]
You ought to know by now what causes that!
When she keeps on brushing you aside
Oh gosh, you're all at sea!
You go contemplating suicide --
It's much too much for me!
You're not so dumb that you don't know the answer.
Loving her is what causes that!

[Zangler]
If I should climb the Brooklyn Bridge and jump off.

[Bobby]
Oh, I suppose you'd ask what causes that?
If I should get a gun and bump this chump off.

[Zangler]
Oh, I suppose you'd ask what causes that?

[Both]
Really you don't have to mope around
And burn up as you do,
There's a cannon and rope around,
There's lots of poison too!
I'm very blue of late and there's a reason:

[Zangler]
Loving her...

[Bobby]
Loving her...

[Both]
Is what causes that!
I'm very blue of late and there's a reason:
Loving her is what causes that!
...Is what causes that!
...Is what causes that!
...Is what causes that!
