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
