Workshop Of Telescopes Lyrics - Blue Oyster Cult

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
