| Lyrics: | By silverfish imperetrix, whose incorrupted eye
Sees through the charms of doctors and their
wives
By salamander, drake, and the power that was undine
Rise to claim Saturn, ring and
sky
By those who see with their eyes close
They know me by my black
telescope
Your green tree mantle from which these things derive
A lens of quartz and
refract spoke that crystal lens
Whose crystal rope once bound me to those
Doctors and
wives
When my vision was oh, so cloudy
And I saw things through two eyes
I am a
sailor on the raging depths
And I know a thing or two
Back to the corner mates and over
the side
Yes I know a thing or two
By silverfish imperetrix, whose incorrupted
eye
Sees through the charms of doctors and their wives
By salamander, drake, and the power
that was undine
Rise to claim Saturn, ring and sky
By those who see with their eyes
closed
you'll know me by my black telescope
Before my great conversion when the
ridge was closed
Before my visit to the workshop of telescopes
By silverfish
imperetrix, whose incorrupted eye
sees through the charms of doctors and their wives
By
salamander, drake, and the power that was undine
Rise to claim Saturn, ring and sky
By
those who see with their eyes closed
you'll know me by my black telescope |
