Sympathy for the Devil



Please allow me to introduce myself. I’m a man of wealth and tasteI've been around for a long, long years. Stole million man's soul an faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ had his moment of doubt and painMade damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name, oh yeahAh, what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
Stuck around St. Petersburg when I saw it was a time for a changeKilled Tsar and his ministers, Anastasia screamed in vainI rode a tank, held a general's rank When the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name, oh yeahAh, what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee while your kings and queensFought for ten decades for the gods they madeI shouted out “Who killed the Kennedys?”When after all iIt was you and meSo let me please introduce myself. I’m a man of wealth and tasteAnd I laid traps for troubadours who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name, oh yeahAh, what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
Just as every cop is a criminal and all the sinners saintsAs heads is tails, just call me Lucifer. ‘Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me, have some courtesyHave some sympathy, and some tasteUse all your well-learned politnesse or I'll lay your soul to waste, 
Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name, oh yeahAh, what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
Tell me baby, what's my name?Tell me honey, can ya guess my name?Tell me baby, what's my name?I tell you one time, you're to blameWhat's my name
