Hands Clean

[Verse 1:]
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.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooh, this could be messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh, don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime.

[Chorus:]
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.

[Verse 2:]
You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
You're a kind of my protégé 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.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooh, this could get messy
But, ooh, you don't seem to mind
Dude, don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime.

[Chorus:]
We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I've more than honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this.

[Bridge:]
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?

[Verse 3:]
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 cause 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.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooh, this could be messy, and
Ooh, I don't seem to mind
Ooh, don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime.

[Chorus:]
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.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ooh, this could get messy, and
Ooh, I don't seem to mind
Ooh, don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime.

[Chorus:]
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.
