ALANIS MORISSETTE
HANDS CLEAN
Verse 1:
CIf it weren't for yDour maturity
NBmone of this would haveC happened
If yCou weren't so wisDe beyond your years
IBm would have been able toC control myself
ICf it weren't for mDy attention
You woBmuldn't have been succCessful
And if, if iCt weren't for meD
You would never have amBmounted to very mCuch
Bridge:
OCoo-oDoh thBmis could be mCessy
But CyouD don't sBmeem to mCind
OCoo-oDoh don't go tBmelling everybCody
And CoverloDok this supBmposed crCime
Chorus:
CWe'll fast fDorward to a Bmfew years lCater
And no-one knows except the both of us
And I have honoured 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 a kind of 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 go to a guardian
I know you sexualize me
Like a young thing would and I think I like it
Bridge:
Chorus:
EmWhat part of our Chistory is re-iGnvented and under rugD swept
What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget
What's with the 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 member of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world
Cos you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
I might want to marry you, one day
If you'd watch that weight and keep your firm body
