Sympathy for the Devil

(The Rolling Stones)

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

CHORUS:

Pleased to meet you, Hope you guess my name

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

I stuck around St. Petersberg -- 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

CHORUS 

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

Please allow me to introduce myself --I'm a man of wealth and taste

And I laid traps for troubadors -- Who get killed before they reached Bombay 

CHORUS x2

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, um yeah

CHORUS

Woo, who..

Tell me baby, what's my name...Tell me honey, baby 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
