Sympathy For The Devil

Mick Jagger & Keth Richards

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.

 I was around when Jesus Christ

Had his moment of doubt and pain

Made damn sure that Pilate

Washed his hands to seal his fate

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guess my name

But what's puzzling you

Is just the nature of my game

Stuck around St. Petersburg

When I thought it was a time for a change

Killed the czar and his ministers

While Anastasia screamed in vain

I rode a tank

Held a general's rank

When the blitzkrieg raged

And the bodies stank (um-hm)

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guess my name

But what's puzzling you

Is just the nature of my game.

I watched with glee

While your kings and queens

Fought for ten decades

O'er the gods they made

And I shouted out,

"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 set traps for troubadours

Who get killed before they reach Bombay (oh yeah)

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my name

But what's confusing you

Is just the nature of my game. (Get down)

 (Guitar Solo)

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my name

But what's puzzling you

Is just the nature of my game.

Just as every cop is a criminal

And all the sinners are 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 grace

Give all your well-learned politesse

Or I shall lay your soul to waste (yeah I mean it - um-hm)

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my name

But what's puzzling you

Is just the nature of my game.

 (Guitar Solo)

Tell me baby, what's my name

Better watch out - 'cause you're to blame

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo - ah yeah

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom-bah

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom-bah

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom

(Guitar Solo)

Um-hm - oh yeah - get on out - what's my name?

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom-bah

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom-bah

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom

Oh sweetheart don't you know that I'm so pleased to meet you and I hoped you guessed my name.
