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 stolen many man's soul and faith 
I was around 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 Tzar and his ministers, Anastasia screamed in vain 
I rode a tank held a gen'rals 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 the glee while your kings and queens fought for 
ten decades for the Gods they made 
I shouted out "Who killed the Kennedy's?" when after all 
it was you and me 
Let me please intruduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste 
And I lay traps for troubadors 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 
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name 
But what's puzzling you is 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 
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name 
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game
