Bryan Ferry - Sympathy for the Devil lyrics

Your rating:

(Jagger,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 fate

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 guess my name

But what´s puzzling you

Is the nature of my game

Stuck around St. Petersburg

When I saw it was time for a change

Killed the Czar and his ministers

Anastasia screamed in vain

I rode a tank

In a general's rank

When the Blitzkrieg raged

And the finest 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

Let me please introduce myself

I'm a man of wealth and taste

And I laid tracks for troubadours

Who get killed before they reached Bombay

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guess my name

But what´s puzzling you

Is the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal

And all you sinner's 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 qualities

Or I'll lay your soul to waste
