Understand It Tim Minchin

If you say nothing
Offer nothing
Then you get nothing in return

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

If you hear nothing
Learn from nothing
Then you give nothing 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

You believe in fate I guess
I believe in consequences
Flapping butterflies and photographs
Driving 'round with KFC
You won't alter global markets
But your shake might make you run a red light
It's not karmic destiny
Just consequence devoid of meaning
Meaning makes us miss the issue anyway
