Please allow me to introduce myself, I`m a man of wealth and taste I`ve been around for long, long years I`ve stolen many a man`s soul and faith I was around when Jesus Christ had His moments of doubt and pain I 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 time for a change I killed the Tzar and his ministers, Anastasia screamed in vain I rode a tank, held a gen`ral`s rank, when the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name, but what`s puzzling you, is the nature of my game
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 So let me please introduce myself, I am a man of wealth and taste And I lay traps for troubadours, who get killed before they reach Bombay Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name, but what`s puzzling you, is the nature of my game
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name, but what`s confusing you, is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is 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 Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name, but what`s puzzling you, is the nature of my game
