If You Don't Like The Effects, Don't Produce The Cause lyrics

If you don't like the effect
Don't produce the cause
(x3)
You say you don't like where you're at (yeah)
You can make a change
If you accept the blame
Stay in control of your reactions, yes
Will determine the effect
Of any situation
You have the power to negate
Any ?-causing feeling
That prohibits you to think
A situation is just that
It has no special power
To do you harm
It's your reactions that count
If you don't like the effect
Don't produce the cause
(x2)
You say you don't like what your country's about (yeah)
Ain't you deep
In your semi-first class seat
You picket this and protest that
And eat yourself fat
Ain't you deep
In your semi-first class seat
If you don't like the effect
Don't produce the cause
(x4)
You say you don't like what your country's about (yeah)
Ain't you deep
In your semi-first class seat
You picket this and protest that
And eat yourself fat
Ain't you deep
In your semi-first class seat
La la la la-la, la la la la
(x2)
