1
If it weren't for your maturity
2
None of this would have happened and
3
If you weren't so wise beyond your years
4
I would've been able to control myself and
5
If it weren't for my attention
6
You wouldn't have been successful and
7
If it weren't for me
8
You will never have amounted to very much
9
Ooh, this could be messy
10
But you don't seem to mind
11
Ooh, don't go telling everybody
12
And overlook this supposed crime
13
We'll fast forward to a few years later
14
And no one knows except the both of us
15
And I have honored your request for silence
16
And you've washed your hands clean of this
17
You're essentially an employee
18
And I like you having to depend on me and
19
You're kind of protege and one day you'll say
20
You learned all you know from me and
21
I know you depend on me
22
Like a young thing would to a guardian and
23
I know you sexualize me
24
Like a young thing would and I think I like it
25
Ooh, this could get messy
26
But you don't seem to mind
27
Ooh, don't go telling everybody
28
And overlook this supposed crime
29
We'll fast forward to a few years later and
30
No one knows except the both of us
31
And I have honored your request for silence
32
And you've washed your hands clean of this
33
What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
34
What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
35
Just make sure you don't tell on me
36
Especially to members of your family and
37
We best keep this to ourselves
38
And not tell any members of our inner posse
39
I wish I could tell the world
40
'Cause you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly and
41
I might want to marry you one day
42
If you watch that weight and keep your firm body
43
Ooh, this could be messy
44
But you don't seem to mind
45
Ooh, don't go telling everybody
46
And overlook this supposed crime
47
We'll fast forward to a few years later
48
And no one knows except the both of us
49
And I have honored your request for silence
50
And you've washed your hands clean of this
