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 muchooh this could be messy
  but you don't seem to mind
  ooh don't go telling everybody
  and overlook this supposed crimechorus:
  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 thisyou're essentially an employee 
  and i like you having to depend on me
  you're a kind of 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 itooh this could get messy
  but you don't seem to mind
  ooh don't go telling everybody
  and overlook this supposed crimechoruswhat 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 youd watch that weight and keep your firm bodyooh this could be messy and
  ooh i don't seem to mind
  ooh don't go telling everybody
  and overlook this supposed crime
