Hands Clean-Alanis Morissette

If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much Ooh this could be messy But you don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime We'll fast forward to a few years later And no one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this You're essentially an employee And I like you having to depend on me You're kind of my protege and one day You'll say you learned all you know from me I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian I know you ***ualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it Ooh this could get messy But you don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime We'll fast forward to a few years later And no one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget What with this distance it seems so obvious Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family We best keep this to ourselves And not tell any members of our inner posse I wish I could tell the world Cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly I might want to marry you one day If you watch that weight and keep your firm body Ooh this could be messy and Ooh I don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime We'll fast forward to a few years later And no one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this Ooh this could be messy and Ooh I don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime We'll fast forward to a few years later And no one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this
