Alanis Morissette – Hands clean

If it weren’t for your maturity, none of this would have happenedIf you weren’t so wise beyond your yearsI would’ve been able to control myselfIf it weren’t for my attention, you wouldn’t have been successful and ifIf it weren’t for me you would never have amounted to very much
Ooh, this could be messy butBut you don’t seem to mind andOoh, don’t go telling everybodyAnd overlook this supposed crimeWe’ll fast forward to a few years laterAnd no one knows except the both of usAnd I have honored your request for silenceAnd you’ve washed your hands clean of this
You’re essentially my employee and I like you having to depend on meYou’re kind of my protege and one dayYou’ll say you learned all you know from meI know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardianI know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it
Ooh, this could get messy butOoh, you don’t seem to mindDude, don’t go telling everybodyAnd overlook this supposed crimeWe’ll fast forward to a few years laterAnd no one knows except the both of usI’ve more than honored your request for silenceAnd 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 familyWe best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posseI wish I could tell the world‘Cause you’re such a pretty thing when you’re done up properlyI might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body
Ooh, this could be messy andOoh, I don’t seem to mindOoh, don’t go telling everybodyAnd overlook this supposed crimeWe’ll fast forward to a few years laterAnd no one knows except the both of usAnd I have honored your request for silenceAnd you’ve washed your hands clean of this
Ooh, this could get messy butOoh, I don’t seem to mindOoh, don’t go telling everybodyAnd overlook this supposed crimeWe’ll fast forward to a few years laterAnd no one knows except the both of usAnd I have honored your request for silenceAnd you’ve washed your hands clean of this
