ooh this could be messy

but you don't seem to mind

ooh don't go telling everybody

and overlook this supposed crime

chorus:

we'll fast forward to a few years later

and no one knows except the both of us

and i have honored 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 protégé

and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me

i know you depend on me

like a young thing would to a guardian

i know you sexualize me

like a young thing would and i think i like it

ooh this could get messy

but you don't seem to mind

ooh don't go telling everybody

and overlook this supposed crime

chorus

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 youd 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 crime
