"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 fate and I was around 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...stuck aroun St. Petersburg
when I saw it was time for a change
killed the Czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain...I rode a tank
in a general's rank
when the Blitzkrieg raged
and the bodies stank..pleased to meet you
hope you guess my name
I watched the gleam
while the kings and queens
fought for ten decades
for the Goth they made i shouted out
"Who killed 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 tracks for troubadours
who get killed before they reached Bombay...pleased to meet you...
just as every cop is a criminal
and all the sinner-saints
as I end this tale
just call me Lucifer
cause I'm in need of some restraints..so if you meet me
have some courtesy
have some sympathy, and some tact
use all your well learned qualities
or I'll lay your soul to waste...pleased to meet you..
hope you guess my name.."
