Hands Clean

If it weren't for your maturity

None of this would have happened and

If you weren't so wise beyond your years

I would've been able to control myself and

If it weren't for my attention

You wouldn't have been successful and

If it weren't for me

You will 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 and

You're kind of protege and one day you'll say

You learned all you know from me and

I know you depend on me

Like a young thing would to a guardian and

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 and

We best keep this to ourselves

And not tell any members of our inner posse

I wish I could tell the world

'Cause you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly and

I might want to marry you one day

If you watch that weight and keep your firm body

Ooh this could be messyBut 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
