It appears that this song, as well as a few other songs on Jagged Little Pill are about the subject of the song “Hands Clean” of her 2002 LP, Under Rug Swept. “Hands Clean” was written looking back on an affair and long-term relationship 14 year old Alanis had with a record industry executive.
Alan...
[Verse 1]
Wait a minute, man
You mispronounced my name
You didn't wait for all the information
Before you turned me away
Wait a minute, sir
You kinda hurt my feelings
You see me as a sweet back-loaded puppet
And you've got meal ticket taste
[Chorus]
I see right through you
I know right through you
I feel right through you
I walk right through you
[Verse 2]
You took me for a joke
You took me for a child
You took a long hard look at my ass
And then played golf for a while
Your shake is like a fish
You pat me on the head
You took me out to wine, dine, 69 me
But didn't hear a damn word I said
[Chorus]
I see right through you
I know right through you
I feel right through you
I walk right through you (Woo)
[Verse 3]
Oh, hello, Mr. Man
You didn't think I'd come back
You didn't think I'd show up with my army
And this ammunition on my back
Now that I'm Miss Thing
Now that I'm a zillionaire
You scan the credits for your name
And wonder why it's not there
[Chorus]
I see right through you
I know right through you
I feel right through you
I walk right through you, you
Right Through You was written by Glen Ballard & Alanis Morissette.
