Laibach – Sympathy For The Devil

Laibach – Sympathy For The Devil Lyrics

Artist: Laibach
Song: Sympathy For The Devil

I was around when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and faith
And I 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
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was time for a change

I 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
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you is the nature of my game
I watched with glee while your kings and queens

Fought for ten decades, for the God 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 lay traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reach Bombay
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name

But what’s puzzling you is the nature of my game
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you is the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal

And all the sinners saints
As head is tail, 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 politics
Or I’ll lay your soul to waste!
