Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzlin' you
Is the nature of my game
[Verse 3]
Stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Tsar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
[Verse 4]
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the Blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
[Chorus]
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
Oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzlin' you
Is the nature of my game
Ah yeah
[Verse 5]
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
[Verse 6]
I shouted out
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
[Verse 7]
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reach Bombay
[Chorus]
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
Oh yeah
But what's puzzlin' you
Is the nature of my game
Oh yeah
Get down, baby
[Chorus]
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
Oh yeah
But what's confusin' you
Is just the nature of my game
Mmm, yeah
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
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
Mmm, yeah
[Chorus]
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
Mmm, yeah
But what's puzzlin' you
Is the nature of my game
[Outro]
Mmm, mean it
Get down
Woo-hoo
Ah yeah
Get on down
Oh yeah
Yeah
Ah yeah
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
Tell me, honey, can you guess my name?
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
I'll tell you one time, you're to blame
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
Woo
Alright
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ah yeah
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ah yeah
Uh, what's my name?
Tell me, baby, what's my name?
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name?
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ah yeah
