Abney Park - The Secret Life Of Dr. Calgori lyrics

Test tubes and Tesla coils
Clockwork brain and glowing oils
Copper, brass, explosive jelly
His mechapede policed Old Delhi
Invented the radio transmitting toe
Played poker with Theremin, Tesla, and Poe
Harnessed cold moonlight to power airships
And distilled antitoxins from postnasal drips

Entropy fading his life away
Before the world could ever see
Dissipating and evaporating
Hired and sacked behind locked doors
A man in uniform fighting cold wars
Invented steam soldiers and taught
Them to fight and they stopped things going
Bump in the night
All his accomplishments hidden for life
His genius top secret even from his wife
An aged wrinkled genius, his memory fading
His fates, his creations
The government evading

Entropy fading his life away
Before the world could ever see
Dissipating and evaporating

Entropy fading his life away
Before the world could ever see
Dissipating and evaporating

Test tubes and Tesla coils
Clockwork brain and glowing oils
Copper, brass, explosive jelly
His mechapede policed Old Delhi
Invented the radio transmitting toe
Played poker with Theremin, Tesla, and Poe
Harnessed cold moonlight to power airships
And distilled antitoxins from postnasal drips

Entropy fading his life away
Before the world could ever see
Dissipating and evaporating

Entropy fading his life away
Before the world could ever see
Dissipating and evaporating

Entropy fading his life away
Before the world could ever see
Dissipating and evaporating
