Lyrics
0:16Please allow me to introduce myself
0:19I'm a man of wealth and taste
0:24I've been around for a long long year
0:27Stole many a man's soul to waste
0:32And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
0:35Had his moment of doubt and pain
0:40Made damn sure that Pilate
0:43Washed his hands and sealed his fate
0:50Pleased to meet you
0:52Hope you guess my name
0:57Cause what's puzzling you
0:59Is just the nature of my game
1:06I stuck around St Petersburg
1:09When I saw it was a time for a change
1:14I killed the Tsar and his ministers
1:17Anastasia screamed in vain
1:22I rode a tank
1:23Held a general's rank
1:25When the blitzkrieg raged
1:27And the bodies stank
1:32Pleased to meet you
1:34Hope you guess my name
1:39Cause what's puzzling you
1:41Is just the nature of my game
1:45Come on come on come on
2:22Pleased to meet you
2:24Hope you guess my name oh yeah
2:29Cause what's puzzling you
2:31Is just the nature of my game
2:38I watched with glee
2:39While your kings and queens
2:41Fought for ten decades
2:43For the gods they made
2:45I shouted out
2:47Who killed the Kennedys
2:49When after all
2:51It was you and me
2:54Let me please introduce myself
2:57I'm a man of wealth and taste
3:02And I laid traps for troubadours
3:05Who get killed before they reached Bombay
3:12Pleased to meet you
3:14Hope you guessed my name oh yeah
3:19Cause what's puzzling you
3:21Is just the nature of my game
3:27Just as every cop is a criminal
3:31And all the sinners saints
3:35As heads is tails
3:37Just call me Lucifer
3:39'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
3:43So if you meet me
3:45Have some courtesy
3:47Have some sympathy and some taste
3:51Use all your well-learned politnesse
3:55Or I'll lay your soul to waste oh yeah
4:02Pleased to meet you
4:04Hope you guessed my name oh yeah
4:09Cause what's puzzling you
4:11Is just the nature of my game oh yeah
4:24What's my name
4:28What's my name
4:30What's my name
4:33Oh yeah
4:35Oh yeah
4:37Oh yeah
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 to waste And I was 'round 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 Cause what's puzzling you Is just the nature of my game I stuck around St Petersburg When I saw it was a time for a change I killed the Tsar and his ministers Anastasia screamed in vain I rode a tank Held a general's rank When the blitzkrieg raged And the bodies stank Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name Cause what's puzzling you Is just the nature of my game Come on come on come on Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name oh yeah Cause what's puzzling you Is just 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 traps for troubadours Who get killed before they reached Bombay Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name oh yeah Cause what's puzzling you Is just the nature of my game Just as every cop is a 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 politnesse Or I'll lay your soul to waste oh yeah Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name oh yeah Cause what's puzzling you Is just the nature of my game oh yeah What's my name What's my name What's my name Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah
