Sympathy for The Devil.

Please allow me to introduce myself.
I'm a man of wealth and taste.
Ive been around for many long years.
Stole many man's soul and faith.
And 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.
I 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 generals 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 reached Bombay.
Pleased to meet you.
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah.
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game.
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.
