    Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil

    lyrics:

    Please allow me to introduce myself

    Im a man of wealth and taste

    Ive been around for a long, long year

    Stole many a mans soul and faith

    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

    Pleased to meet you

    Hope you guess my name

    But whats 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 generals rank

    When the blitzkrieg raged

    And the bodies stank

    Pleased to meet you

    Hope you guess my name, oh yeah

    Ah, whats puzzling you

    Is the nature of my game, oh yeah

    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

    Im a man of wealth and taste

    And I laid traps for troubadours

    Who get killed before they reached bombay

    Pleased to meet you

    Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah

    But whats puzzling you

    Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby

    Pleased to meet you

    Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah

    But whats confusing you

    Is just the nature of my game

    Just as every cop is a criminal

    And all the sinners saints

    As heads is tails

    Just call me lucifer

    cause Im 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 Ill lay your soul to waste, um yeah

    Pleased to meet you

    Hope you guessed my name, um yeah

    But whats puzzling you

    Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down

    Woo, who

    Oh yeah, get on down

    Oh yeah

    Oh yeah!

    Tell me baby, whats my name

    Tell me honey, can ya guess my name

    Tell me baby, whats my name

    I tell you one time, youre to blame

    Ooo, who

    Ooo, who

    Ooo, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Oh, yeah

    Whats me name

    Tell me, baby, whats my name

    Tell me, sweetie, whats my name

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Ooo, who, who

    Oh, yeah

    Opeth - Burden

    I once upon a time

    Carried a burden inside

    I sung a last goodbye

    A broken rhyme I had underlined

    There's an ocean of sorrow in you

    Sorrow in me

    Saw a movement in their eyes

    Said, I no longer knew the way

    Given up the ghost

    A passive mind submit to fear

    And the wait for redemption at hand

    Waiting to fail

    Failing again

    If death should take me now

    Count my mistakes and let me through

    Whisper in my ear

    You've taken more than we've received

    And the ocean of sorrow is you
