lyrics

The invention of a new piece enabled their construction
A genetic constitution was figured out
Tools could be mounted: diversity of function
Advantage evolution: opposable snout

They traveled in a craft made from a bass loudspeaker
Landed in the center of the living room floor
Curious faces at the angular portholes
Steps descending through the circular door

Their intentions could be peaceful - or did they bring destruction?
A counter-revolution: the Bogs had doubts
The mission of the council: a civilized protection
A perimeter solution was carried out

Defenses collapse against rubber band weapons
Their bodies broken down for sand bags
Superior design of elastic artillery
Launching assaults of irresistible force

Through tactics of subversion; with knowledge and instruction
Minimize the tension and culture shock
Time and understanding, enabled reconstruction
Eventual integration was not in doubt

Memory fades into the pages of history
The alien face becomes a best friend
The world revealed to a new generation
The cycle renews and a balance restored

The invention of a new piece enabled their construction
An action of creation with building blocks
Intentions can be peaceful and yet can bring destruction
The inevitable replay and paradox

The Prodigal Sounds Novato, California

Melodic progressive rock songs and instrumentals, 70's influence but a product of the dystopian Now.

"..on a rare occasion you just have to conclude that the prog world should be feasting upon the birth of a new and promising act. That's exactly the case with this album."
- Theo Verstrael, DPRP.net
