Hands clean lyrics

Artist  : Alanis morissette 
Song : Hands clean
 
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 sexualize 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
