Tiamat - Sympathy for the devil (rolling stones cover)

Tiamat - Sympathy for the devil (rolling stones cover)

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 faith



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

But what's puzzling you

Is the nature of my game



I stuck around St. Petersburg

When I saw it was a time for a change



Killed the czar 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, oh yeah

Ah, what's puzzling you

Is the nature of my game, oh yeah



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

But what's puzzling you

Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby



Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah

But what's confusing 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 politesse

Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah



Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my name, um yeah

But what's puzzling you

Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down



Tell me baby, what's my name

Tell me honey, can ya guess my name

Tell me baby, what's my name

I tell you one time, you're to blame



What's me name

Tell me, baby, what's my name

Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
