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 man’s soul and faith |
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 |
Stuck around St. 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 |
Ah, 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 reach 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, baby |
Pleased to meet you -- hope you guessed my name, oh yeah |
But what’s confusing you is just the nature of my game |
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, mmm, yeah |
Pleased to meet you -- hope you guessed my name, mmm, yeah |
But what’s puzzling you is the nature of my game |
Mmm, mean it, get down |
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 blame |
What’s my name? |
Tell me baby, what’s my name? |
Tell me sweetie, what’s my name? |
