[E]Please allow me to intro[D]duce myself,
I'm a [A]man of wealth and Etaste
[E]I've been around for [D]long, long years
I've [A]stolen many a man's soul and [E]faith
[E]I was around when [D]Jesus Christ
had his [A]moments of doubt and [E]pain
[E]I made damn sure that [D]Pilate
washed his [A]hands and sealed his [E]fate
[B]Pleased to meet you,
hope you guess my [E]name,
but what's [B]puzzling you,
is the nature of my [E]game
[E]I stuck around St. [D]Petersburg
when I [A]saw it was time for a [E]change
[E]I killed the Czar and his [D]ministers,
Ana[A]stasia screamed in [E]vain
[E]I rode a tank, held a [D]gen'ral's rank,
when the Ablitzkrieg raged and the [E]bodies stank
[B]Pleased to meet you,
hope you guess my [E]name,
but what's [B]puzzling you,
is the nature of my [E]game
[E]I watched with glee while your [D]kings and queens,
fought for [A]ten decades for the [E]gods they made
[E]I shouted out "Who killed the [D]Kennedys?",
when after [A]all it was you and [E]me
[E]So let me please intro[D]duce myself,
I am a [A]man of wealth and [E]taste
[E]And I lay traps for [D]troubadours,
who get [A]killed before they [E]reach Bombay
[B]Pleased to meet you,
hope you guess my [E]name,
but what's [B]puzzling you,
is the nature of my [E]game
[E]Just as every cop is [D]criminal,
and all the [A]sinners, [E]Saints
[E]As heads is tails, just call me [D]Lucifer,
'cause I'm in [A]need of some rest[E]raint
[E]So if you meet me, have some [D]courtesy,
have some [A]sympathy and some [E]taste
[E]Use all your well-learned poli[D]tesse,
or I'll [A]lay your soul to [E]waste
[B]Pleased to meet you,
hope you guess my [E]name,
but what's [B]puzzling you,
is the nature of my [E]game
