Well, Tesla refers to electricity pioneer Nikola Tesla, see link:

Then read they lyrics and make of it what you will:
Quoting:NO NO NO
Tesla Girls Tesla Girls
Testing out theories
Electric Chairs and dynamos
Dressed to kill Theyre killing me
But Heaven knows their recipe
NO NO NO
You wouldnt believe me if I said
The things Ive seen went over my head
Ive been patient Heaven knows
Ive learnt the rules and how it goes
I cant sit still or settle down
And when I walk I dont touch the ground
See those girls theyre Heaven blessed
I guess its so they know best
Tesla Girls Tesla Girls
Writing in their diaries
Now and then theyll watch TV
Now and then theyll speak to me
But Heaven knows their recipe
NO NO NO
You wouldnt believe them if they said
The things theyve seen went over their heads
Theyve been patient Heaven knows
They seem to care and so it goes
They cant sit still or settle down
And when they walk they dont touch the ground
See those girls theyre Heaven blessed
I guess its so they know best
Tesla Girls
Tesla Girls
Tesla Girls
Tesla Girls
Tesla Girls Tesla Girls
Testing out theories
Electric chairs and dynamos
Dressed to kill theyre killing me
Tesla Girls Tesla girls
Im in love with Tesla Girls
Now and then theyll watch TV
Now and then theyll speak to me
But heaven knows their recipe
NO NO NO End Quote

I read somewhere that it was about how many girls use electrical products (hair driers were mentioned particularly) without any concept of how they work.

That's a plausible explanation. I once speculated it my might be a sly reference to electrical devices of a more stimulating nature, but... :-X

Thanx for the link, Tesla was a genius. Now I might be able to decipher how "Electricity" and "Enola Gay" two other great songs fit into the soup..... Thanx Max :)
