Legendary Pink Dots A Terra Firma Welcome

It scored E-minus on its ancestry.
It stuttered on the phone.  They tried extensive hypnotherapy but
it sat there like a stone.  They checked its pockets, they pumped
the pentathol...stole marrow from its bones...and left it naked in
the guest room, quite alone.  They debated for a year.  The casebook
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...So they cut it into pieces.  They sterilized them, placed
them in a case and charged admission.  Now I'm watching television
and I see laughter in its eyes.  I hear a rumble in the sky,  They're
coming for their boy!
