Sympathy For The Devil

Please, allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had His moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I stuck around Saint Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain

I 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, yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh, yeah

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made

I shouted out
Who killed the Kennedys?
When, after all
It was you and me

Let me, please, introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh, yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh, yeah
Get down, hit it

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh, yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game, mm, yeah

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners, saints
As heads is tails, just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint

So if you meet me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste

Pleased to meet you
Hope you gues my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, mm, mean it
Get down

Woo-hoo
Ah, yeah
Get down now
Oh, yeah

Ah, yeah
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
Tell me, honey, can you guess my name?
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Ooh, alright

What's my name?
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name?
