Brooklyn's Finest movie - Sympathy for the Devil lyrics

rate me

Please allow me to introduce myself<br>

I'm a man of wealth and taste<br>

I've been around for a long, long year<br>

Stole many a man's soul and fate<br>

<br>

I was 'round when Jesus Christ<br>

Had his moments of doubt and pain<br>

Made damn sure that Pilate<br>

Washed his hands and sealed his fate<br>

<br>

Pleased to meet you<br>

Hope you guess my name, oh yeah<br>

But what's puzzling you<br>

Is the nature of my game<br>

<br>

I stuck around St. Petersburg<br>

When I saw it was a time for a change<br>

Killed the Czar and his ministers<br>

Anastasia screamed in vain<br>

<br>

I rode a tank<br>

Held a General's rank<br>

When the Blitzkrieg raged<br>

And the bodies stank<br>

<br>

Pleased to meet you<br>

Hope you guess my name, oh yeah<br>

What's puzzling you<br>

Is the nature of my game, oh yeah<br>

<br>

I watched the glee<br>

While your kings and queens<br>

Fought for ten decades<br>

For the Gods they made<br>

<br>

I shouted out<br>

"Who killed the Kennedys?"<br>

Well after all<br>

It was you and me<br>

<br>

Let me please introduce myself<br>

I'm a man of wealth and taste<br>

And I laid traps for troubadours<br>

Who get killed before they reached Bombay<br>

<br>

Pleased to meet you<br>

Hope you guess my name, oh yeah<br>

But what's puzzling you<br>

Is the nature of my game, oh yeah<br>

<br>

Pleased to meet you<br>

Hope you guess my name, oh yeah<br>

But what's confusing you<br>

Is just the nature of my game, ooh yeah<br>

<br>

Just as every cop is a criminal<br>

And all the sinners saints<br>

As heads is tails just call me Lucifer<br>

I'm in need of some restraint<br>

<br>

So if you meet me, have some courtesy<br>

Have some sympathy and some taste<br>

Use all your well learned politics<br>

Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mmm yeah<br>

<br>

Pleased to meet you<br>

Hope you guess my name, mmm yeah<br>

But what's puzzling you<br>

Is the nature of my game, get down<br>

Woo hoo, ah yeah, get on down, oh yeah<br>

<br>

Tell me, baby, what's my name?<br>

Tell me, honey, baby guess my name<br>

Tell me, baby, what's my name?<br>

I'll ya one time you're to blame<br>

<br>

What's my name?<br>

Tell me, baby, what's my name?<br>

Tell me, sweetie, what's my name?<br>

<br>
