Chords v1

E                                                D                                   A                                     E

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 to waste

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

B                                                                                       E

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

chorus.. (Woo woo, woo woo)

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

chorus solo chorus

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, mm yeah

Chorus

woo's

Tell me baby, what's my name

Tell me honey, can ya guess my name

Tell me baby, what's my name

I tell you one time, you're to blame

woo's

Oh, yeah

What's my name

Tell me, baby, what's my name

Tell me, sweetie, what's my name

Woo, who, who
