[E]Please allow me to intro[D]duce myself
I'm a [A]man of wealth and [E]taste
I've been around for a [D]long, long year
Stolen [A]many a man's soul and [E]faith

I was around when Jesus Christ had His moment of doubt and [E]pain
Made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed his [E]fate

[B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game

[E]I stuck around St. [D]Petersburg
When I [A]saw it was time for a [E]change
I killed the Tzar and his [D]ministers
Anas[A]tasia screamed in [E]vain

I rode a tank, held a [D]gen'ral's rank
When the [A]blitzkrieg raged and the [E]bodies stank

[B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]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
I shouted out "Who killed the [D]Kennedys?"
When [A]after all it was [E]you and me

Let me please introduce myself
I am a man of wealth and [E]taste
And I lay traps for [D]troubadours
Who get [A]killed before they reach Bom[E]bay

[B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game

[Instrumental]

[B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
But what's [D]confusing you, is just the [A]nature of my [E]game

[E]Just as every cop is a [D]criminal
And [A]all the sinners [E]saints
As heads is tails, just call me [D]Lucifer
'Cause I'm in [A]need of some re[E]straint

So if you meet me, have some [D]courtesy
Have some [A]sympathy and some [E]taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll [A]lay your soul to [E]waste

[B]Pleased to meet you, [A]hope you guess my [E]name
But what's [D]puzzling you, is the [A]nature of my [E]game
