Because your cooling system isn't up to scratch or you have a head gasket issue.

Radiator, Radiator cap, Thermostat and Water Pump all need to be checked. I'd start with the thermostat and radiator cap, they're the cheapest. Any of these items being faulty will cause your engine to overheat and blow water and steam out the radiator cap.
