Please allow me to introduce myself
|
I'm a man of wealth and taste
|
I've been around for long, long year
|
Stolen many a man's soul and faith
|
I was around when Jesus Christ had
|
His moment of doubt and pain
|
I made damn sore that Pilate
|
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
|
|
(chorus:)
|
Please 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 time for a change
|
I killed the tzar and his ministers
|
Anastasia screamed in vain
|
I rode a tank, held a general's rank
|
When the Blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank
|
|
(chorus:)
|
|
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
|
So let me please introduce myself
|
I'm a man of wealth and taste
|
And I lay traps for troubadours
|
Who get killed before they reach Bombay
|
|
(chorus: -twice-)
|
|
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
|
|
(chorus:)
