Lyrics Gentlemen - The Handsome Family

Gentlemen, I tell you now
I swear the truth
I saw the table rise, the teacup flew
From tempered glass I built the apparatus
To alight in the presence of phantasmus
Filaments within detect a change
In aero-pressure, barometric waves
Gentlemen, in the name of science
Gentlemen, I now can prove
The unseen world is close, it pushes through
Gentlemen, the lights blew out
Gentlemen, the curtains moved
A world of light resides just past our view
Within the crooks of vacuum tubes
A caged spirit lit aglow the room
Burst forth from the shattered tube
It thinned my blood, burnt me, ravaged cruel
Gentlemen, the lights do flicker
Gentlemen, the air it cools
Who′s with me here, listening in this room
Gentlemen, the world grows dark
Gentlemen, the curtains moved
Who's with me here, whispering in this room
