word order - Why does "Why doesn't it work?" become "Why does it not work?"

When you uncontract doesn't in "Why doesn't it work?" the not moves to "Why does it not work?"



This confuses me even more when I use a longer phrase instead of the pronoun it like below:




Why doesn't this simple code example work?





Why does the word order change when we use a contraction?
