Lyrics

[00:05.261] If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened
[00:09.994] If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself
[00:14.938] If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and
[00:19.750] If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much
[00:24.864] Ooh this could be messy
[00:29.667] But you don't seem to mind
[00:34.299] Ooh don't go telling everybody
[00:39.38] And overlook this supposed crime
[00:44.16] We'll fast forward to a few years later
[00:48.572] And no one knows except the both of us
[00:53.287] And I have honored your request for silence
[00:57.507] And you've washed your hands clean of this
[01:02.912] You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
[01:07.707] You're kind of my protege and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me
[01:12.454] I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian
[01:16.422] I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it
[01:22.355] Ooh this could get messy
[01:26.722] But you don't seem to mind
[01:31.886] Ooh don't go telling everybody
[01:36.160] And overlook this supposed crime
[01:41.467] We'll fast forward to a few years later
[01:46.34] And no one knows except the both of us
[01:50.890] And I have honored your request for silence
[01:54.935] And you've washed your hands clean of this
[02:00.339] what part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept
[02:10.264] what part of your memory is selective and tends to forget
[02:16.937] what with this distance it seems so obvious
[02:21.933] Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family
[02:26.879] We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse
[02:31.653] I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
[02:36.537] I might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body
[02:41.566] Ooh this could be messy and
[02:46.290] Ooh I don't seem to mind
[02:51.103] Ooh don't go telling everybody
[02:55.662] And overlook this supposed crime
[03:00.620] We'll fast forward to a few years later
[03:05.321] And no one knows except the both of us
[03:10.19] And I have honored your request for silence
[03:14.167] And you've washed your hands clean of this
[03:19.853] Ooh this could be messy and
[03:24.669] Ooh I don't seem to mind
[03:29.462] Ooh don't go telling everybody
[03:34.120] And overlook this supposed crime
[03:38.875] We'll fast forward to a few years later
[03:43.439] And no one knows except the both of us
[03:48.305] And I have honored your request for silence
[03:52.501] And you've washed your hands clean of this
