As the world ends Saturday 21 May 2011
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
B*&&er ! Better cut the lawn today then !
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's 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 (yeah)
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
This is more appropriate for the end of the world.
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 see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
oh no wrong track
I rode a tank, held a generals rank?
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
Don't let him fool you, he saw your nametag!
Can anyone else hear the Ginger wailing while you're reading this or do you know the Stones version more?
