Lyrics

0:01Sympathy For The Devil - Guns N' Roses
0:29Please allow me to introduce myself
0:32I'm a man of wealth and taste
0:37I've been around for a long, long year
0:40Stole many a man's soul and faith
0:46I was 'round when Jesus Christ
0:50Had his moment of doubt and pain
0:55Made damn sure that Pilate
0:58Washed his hands and sealed his fate
1:06Pleased to meet you
1:08Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
1:13But what's puzzling you
1:17Is the nature of my game
1:23I stuck around St. Petersberg
1:27When I saw it was a time for a change
1:32I Killed the Czar and his ministers
1:36Anastasia screamed in vain
1:41I rode a tank
1:42Held a general's rank
1:45When the Blitzkrieg raged
1:46And the bodies stank
1:53Pleased to meet you
1:55Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
2:01What's puzzling you
2:03Is the nature of my game, a-ha
2:10I watched with glee
2:12While your kings and queens
2:14Fought for ten decades
2:16For the Gods they made
2:18I shouted out
2:20"Who killed the Kennedys?"
2:23When after all
2:25It was you and me
2:28Let me please introduce myself
2:31I'm a man of wealth and taste
2:37And I laid traps for troubadors
2:40Who get killed before they reached Bombay
2:48Pleased to meet you
2:50Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
2:56But what's puzzling you
2:58Is the nature of my game, yeah
3:44Pleased to meet you
3:45Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
3:50But what's confusing you
3:53Is just the nature of my game
4:01Just as every cop is a criminal
4:04And all the sinners saints
4:09As heads is tails, just call me Lucifer
4:12'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
4:19So if you meet me, have some courtesy
4:23Have some sympathy, and some taste
4:27Use all your well-learned politesse
4:30Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
4:38Pleased to meet you
4:40Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
4:45But what's puzzling you
4:48Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
4:56Woo, oh yeah
5:03Tell me baby, what's my name
5:07Tell me honey, baby guess my name
5:12Ooo, Ooo, Ooo
