Sympathy For The Devil

by Moguai

Lyrics
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long years
Stole many men'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 and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I watched with glee while 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

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

Just a sad, sick old pathetic criminal
And no one deserves to stain
The sense of self 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-earned royalties
Or I'll leave you so to waste

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
