The Hollies Mad Professor Blyth lyrics

The Mad Professor Blyth is working on his pet invention
To dematerialize himself into the fourth dimension
He's got his mind set on illusion, to find the secrets of diffusion
Conclusion, he disappeared

Tried it on his cat one gray night when it was foggy
Never got it back, oh, what happened to his Moggy?
He's got his mind set on illusion, to find the secrets of diffusion
Conclusion, he disappeared

And all the kids around about his neighborhood
Used to laugh at him and call him names

'Silly old bat', 'Freaky four eyes', sort of things they used to shout
He can't hear them now

He's disappeared

Colleagues at the lab, they all thought that he was crazy
Don't know where he's at, his formulas to them are hazy
He had his mind set on illusion, he found the secrets of diffusion
Conclusion, he disappeared
