Hands Clean by Alanis Morissette

If it weren't for your maturity
None of this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond (1)________ years
I would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention
You wouldn't have been successful, and if
If it weren't for me, you would never
Have amounted to very much
This could be messy, but
But you don't seem to mind, and
Don't go telling everybody, and
And over-look this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few (2)__________ later, and
And no one knows (3)____________ the both of us
And I have honored (4)________ 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 protégé and one day you'll say
You learned all you know (5)________ me, and
And I (6)________ you depend on me
Like a young thing would to a guardian
I know you (7)__________________ me
Like a young thing (8)__________ and I think I like it
This (9)__________ get messy, but
You don't seem to mind
Dude, don't go telling everybody, and
Over-look this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few years later, and
No one knows except the both of us
I've more than honored your request for silence
And you've (10)____________ your hands clean of this
What part of our history's re-invented and (11)__________ rug swept

What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget
What with this distance it (12)__________ 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 (13)________ any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world
'Cause you're such a pretty thing
When you're done up properly
I might wanna (14)__________ you one day
If you'd watch that (15)____________ and you (16)________ your firm body
This (17)__________ be messy
I don't seem to mind
Don't go telling everybody, and

And you've washed your hands clean of this
This could get messy, but
I don't seem to mind
Don't go telling everybody, and
