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 much

[00:25.08]Ooh this could be messy
[00:28.80]But you don't seem to mind
[00:33.24]Ooh don't go telling everybody
[00:38.39]And overlook this supposed crime
[00 :43.11]

Ooh this could get messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

[01:55.71]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
