Lyrics

By Silverfish Imperatrix, 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
 Your green tree mantle from which these things derive
 A lens of quartz and refract scope
 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
 Yeah, I know a thing or two, alright Buck
 ♪
 By Silverfish Imperatrix, 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
 Playin' it out of space, you know
 ♪
 By Silverfish Imperatrix, 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
