Sympathy for the Devil

[Intro]

Yeow

Yeow

Yeow

[Verse 1]

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 puzzlin' you is the nature of my game

[Verse 2]

Stuck around St. Petersburg

When I saw it was a time for a change

Killed the Tsar 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]

Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name

Oh yeah

Ah, what's puzzlin' you is the nature of my game

Aww yeah

[Verse 3]

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

[Chorus]

Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name

Oh yeah

But what's puzzlin' you is the nature of my game

Aww yeah

(Uh, get down heavy!)

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Pleased to meet you, hope you'll guess my name

Aww yeah

But what's confusin' you is just the nature of my game

Mmm yeah

[Verse 4]

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

[Chorus]

Pleased to meet you, hope you guessed my name

Mmm, yeah

But what's puzzlin' you is the nature of my game

Mmm, mean it, get down

[Outro w/Guitar Solo]

Woo hoo!

Aww yeah

Get on down

Oh yeah

Ba bum bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, ba ba bum, yeah

Ah yeah

Tell me, baby, what's my name?

Tell me, honey, can you guess my name?

Tell me, baby, what's my name?

I'll tell you one time, you're to blame

Ooo hoo, ooo hoo, ooo hoo

All right

Ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo

Ah yeah

Ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo

Ah, yes, what's my name?

Tell me, baby, ah, what's my name?

Tell me, sweetie, what's my name?

Ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo

Ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo, ooo hoo hoo

Ah yeah

What's my name...
