A Terra Firma Welcome
E-minus on its ancestry.
It stuttered on the phone.
Tried extensive hypnotherapy
Sat there like a stone.
They checked its pockets,
They pumped the pentathol...
Stole marrow from its bones...
Left it naked in the guest room,
Quite alone.
Debated for a year.
The casebook, it stretched from here to here...
Quoted precedents and dissidents.
And Johnny joined the space police
And searched the stars for refugees-
His finger on the stunner
In the name of earthly peace.
And when it seemed that space was empty
And the moon was made of cheese,
They decided on a terra firma 'welcome'.
But, guess...
Our guest was now deceased...
Rest in peace...
They cut it into pieces.
They sterilized them,
They placed them in a case and charged admission.
Now I'm watching television
I see laughter in his eyes.
I hear a rumble in the sky,
They're coming...
Yes, they're coming for their boy!
They're coming...
Yes, they're coming for their boy..
