Understand It Songtext
von Tim Minchin

Mmmm

If you say nothin′
Offer nothin'
Then you′ll get nothin' in return

This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it works
Mmmm

If you hear nothin'
Learn from nothin′
Then you′ll teach nothin' when it′s your turn

This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it works

This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it works
Mmm


You believe in fate, I guess
I believe in consequences
Flappin' butterflies and photographs

Drivin′ 'round with KFC, I know
You won′t alter global markets
But your shake might make you run a red light

It's not karmic destiny, it's just
Consequence devoid of meaning
Meaning makes us miss the issue anyway

Everyone will alter
Everyone will alter
Everyone will alter
Everyone will alter
Everyone

Everyone will alter
Everyone will alter
Everyone will alter
Everyone will alter
Everyone

Everyone will alter
Everyone


This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it
This is the way I understand it work
