SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL
words and music by Mick Jagger & Keith Richards

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.
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 puzzlin' you Is the nature of my game.

Stuck around St. Petersburg When I saw it was a time for a change.
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
Ah, what's puzzling youIs 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 Kennedy's?"
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 reach Bombay.

Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name,
But what's puzzlin' you Is 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 politeness Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mm yeah.

Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name,
But what's puzzlin' you Is the nature of my game.
