Hello! I See You! Lyrics
Listening, learning
And feel the world turning
And tasting all the smells
As our flesh is burning
I wish I could see it from a dizzying height
I wish I could see you seeing me tonight
And it's a new kind of love
When you get touched by his glove
And you get blinded by the flash photo picture of
Picture of, your new master
And your heart starts to beat a little faster
America wakes up to a brand new morning
As he appears in the night' skies
Without warning
And it's a new day's dawn
And the thrill is never gone
And there's a fire sign burning like hell on my lawn
And now it's getting exciting
The interest has peaked
He's gonna take us down to play a little hide and seek
Here it goes
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
It's the end of times and of the conversation
And everybody clinging to their soul salvation
I find all their pleas for mercy so annoying
Hello, destructor! I'm yours for the destroying
Now he's an evil trend setter
He's a heavy heavy petter
When you lose one of your senses
All the others get better
It's the natural selection
The synthetic horn section
He lives to astound
Take it down
Take it down
Here it goes
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
Magic eyes and hocus-pocus
And now our blur is clearer than our focus
And now we're getting our just desserts
Because the music hurts
But the music hurts
Hurts!
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
Hello! I see you (Hello! I want you to know)
Hello, there! (I'm gonna to join the cast of your one man show)
Hello! I see you (Cause time, it urgently marches on)
Hello, there! (Everything's going to be totally cool from now on)
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello
And feel the world turning
And tasting all the smells
As our flesh is burning
I wish I could see you seeing me tonight
And it's a new kind of love
When you get touched by his glove
And you get blinded by the flash photo picture of
Picture of, your new master
America wakes up to a brand new morning
As he appears in the night' skies
Without warning
And the thrill is never gone
And there's a fire sign burning like hell on my lawn
And now it's getting exciting
The interest has peaked
He's gonna take us down to play a little hide and seek
Here it goes
Hello, there!
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
And everybody clinging to their soul salvation
I find all their pleas for mercy so annoying
Hello, destructor! I'm yours for the destroying
He's a heavy heavy petter
When you lose one of your senses
All the others get better
It's the natural selection
The synthetic horn section
He lives to astound
Take it down
Take it down
Here it goes
Hello, there!
Hello! I see you
Hello, there!
And now our blur is clearer than our focus
And now we're getting our just desserts
Because the music hurts
But the music hurts
Hurts!
Hello, there!
Hello! I see you (Hello! I want you to know)
Hello, there! (I'm gonna to join the cast of your one man show)
Hello! I see you (Cause time, it urgently marches on)
Hello, there! (Everything's going to be totally cool from now on)
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello
Hello, Hello Hello, Hello

Update to my original interpretation: on the live album "Absolute Pleasure" Dick Valentine gives some insight to the meaning of the song.
Prior to playing it, Valentine says: "this song is about the ecstasy of accepting Satan as your master."
I think, at least partially, this confirms my primary interpretation (that the song is about some type of supernatural being) and doesn't quite deter the rock star aspect of it. The narrator is idolizing "Satan" like a rock star. However, if you've ever seen or heard a Electric Six live show or seen a Valentine interview, you know how he enjoys to be abstruse and enigmatic. But I'm going to take Valentine's word on this.
This is a strange song (big surprise, right). On the surface it seems like their is some type of supernatural, or extraterrestrial giant or god in the sky destroying planet earth. The narrator is not only wowed by the menace but he seems to have idolized this creature.
But there seems to be this rock star subtext too. I don't know if that means the narrator is idolizing the monster as a rock star or the narrator is idolizing the rock star like some monster.
Good song though.
@hornytheclown I don't see any rock star imagery. It's just their favorite subject, who shows up often.

This is a response to all the Christian "love Jesus" songs out there. What's the opposite of worshipping Jesus? Of course it's about worshipping Satan. Not that Tyler is a "Satanist," he's more of a satirist. The Devil arrives to bring on the end of days, and the narrator is thoroughly in the "camp of the bad guys." But it's not all good, since "the music hurts." However everything will be totally cool. So he's got that going for him.
