Lyrics
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for many long year
Stole many a man's soul and fate
I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moments 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 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
What's puzzling you
Is just the nature of my game
I watched the 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
So 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 guess my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is just the nature of my game, oh yeah
Come on down
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Now what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game, yeah
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails and call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
And if you meet me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy and some taste
Use all your well learned politics
Or I'll lay your soul to waste
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is just the nature of my game
Woo hoo, yeah, come on
Get down with it, yeah
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
Tell me, baby, guess my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
Tell me, baby, guess my name, yeah
