Sympathy for the Devil

Please allow me to introduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste I've been around for long,lost year Stolen many and a man's soul and faith I was around when Jesus Christ had His moment of doubt and faith I made damn sore that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate Please to meet you Hope you guess my name But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game I stuck around St.Petersburg When I saw it was time for a change I killed the tzar and his ministers Anastasia screamed in vain I rode a tank,held a general's rank When the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank Please to meet you Hope you guess my name But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game I watched with glee while your kings and queens Fought for decades for the Gods they made I should "who killed the Kennedys?" When after all it was you and me So let me please introduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste And I lay traps for troubadours Who get killed before they reach Bombay Please to meet you Hope you guess my name But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game Please 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 Luciter '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 Please to meet you Hope you guess my name But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game
