Tesla

[Chorus]

Tesla

Brought the X-ray photo to the world

Brought the AC power to the world

[Verse 1]

Here is a mind that can see across space

Here is a mind soaring free

Sound turns to light and light turns to waves

And waves turn to all things perceived

Maybe that knowledge would drive one insane

How can that knowledge be tamed?

[Chorus]

Tesla

Ushered the radio wave into the world

Ushered the neon light into the world

[Verse 2]

The Hotel New Yorker, he's dead on the floor

The body of Nikola lies

With just his papers, no family to tell

Out of the windows birds fly

Under an X-ray of Mark Twain's skull

The plan for the death-ray's design

[Chorus]

Tesla

Brought the radar detection to the world

Ushered remote control into the world

Ushered the bladeless turbine into the world

Ushered the neon light into the world
