Hands Clean
Alanis Morissette
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 protege 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 crime2000s 80s 90s a favorite from this artist acoustic Adult Alternative alanis morissette alt rock alt-pop alt-rock alternative alternative rock angst attitude Awesome best of alanis morissette Bittersweet break up brilliant canada Canadian catchy cheesy chick rock chill Chills cj and toby danny says yay dawsons creek emotional Favorite Favorite Artists favorite by this singer favorite songs favorites favourite Favourites Feel Good Songs female female artists female vocal female vocalist female vocalists female vocals Female Voices folk girls girls with guitars girlstuff good song groovy indie indie rock JPop lately lyricism minhas musicas prediletas newly added oh so dancy old Safarian songs on repeat Perfect song play back my heart pop pop rock post-grunge pull on my heartstrings relationships rex ferric faves rock salty love self-reflection set something ablaze sing singer-songwriter smart Songs that remind me of him songs that tell stories Soundtrack Of My Life teenage years underrated upbeat watch that weight and keep you
