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

Let me please introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste

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



CHORUS



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, Oh yeah, get on down, Oh yeah, Oh yeah!

Tell me baby, what's my name

Tell me honey, baby guess my name

Tell me baby, what's my name

Tell you one time, you're to blame

Ooo, who, Ooo, who, Ooo, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who

What's my name

Tell me, baby, what's my name

Tell me, sweetie, what's my name

Ooo, who, who Ooo, who, Ooo, who, Ooo, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who, Ooo, who, who,
