Steve Taylor Lyrics
"I Want To Be A Clone"

I'd gone through so much other stuff
That walking down the aisle was tough
But now I know it's not enough
(I want to be a clone)

I asked the Lord into my heart
They said that was the way to start
But now you've got to play the part
(I want to be a clone)

Be a clone and kiss conviction goodnight
Clone-liness is next to Godliness
(Right?)
I'm grateful that they show the way
'Cause I could never know the way
To serve him on my own
(I want to be a clone)

They told me that I'd fall away
Unless I followed what they say
Who needs the Bible anyway?
(I want to be a clone)

Their language, it was new to me
But Christianese got through to me
Now I can speak it fluently
(I want to be a clone)

Be a clone and kiss conviction goodnight
Clone-liness is next to Godliness
(Right?)
I'm grateful that they show the way
'Cause I could never know the way
To serve him on my own
(I want to be a clone)

(If you want to be one of his
Got to act like one of us)

(Send in the clones)

(If you want to be one of his
Got to act like one of us)

(Ah, I kind of wanted to tell my friends and people about it, you know)

(If you want to be one of his
Got to act like one of us)

(What?)

(If you want to be one of his
Got to act like one of us)

(You're still a babe
You have to grow
Give it twenty years or so
Cause if you want to be one of his
Got to act like one of us)

Be a clone and kiss conviction goodnight
Clone-liness is next to Godliness
(Right?)
I'm grateful that they show the way
'Cause I could never know the way
To serve him on my own
(I want to be a clone)

So now I see the whole design
My church is an assembly line
The parts are there, I'm feeling fine
(I want to be a clone)

I've learned enough to stay afloat
But not so much I rock the boat
I'm glad they shoved it down my throat
(I want to be a clone)

(Everybody must get cloned)
