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    What's puzzling you    Is 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 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    But what's puzzling you    Is the nature of my game    Pleased to meet you    Hope you guessed my name    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       Pleased to meet you    Hope you guessed my name    But what's puzzling you    Is the nature of my game
