Workshop of the Telescopes 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 an' 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

Yes, I know a thing or two

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 an' 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 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 an' sky

By those who see with their eyes closed

You'll know me by my... black telescope!
