Alanis Morissette - 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 protйgй 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
