I've 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 that's 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
Cloneliness is next to godliness - RIGHT!
I'm grateful that they showed 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...
"Send in the clones..."
(Uh, I kinda wanted to tell some of my friends and people about it
You know?)
WHAT????
You're still a babe, you have to grow
Give it twenty years or so
'Cause if you want to be one of his
Gotta act like one of US!
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
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 that's 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
Cloneliness is next to godliness - RIGHT!
I'm grateful that they showed 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

I Want To Be A Clone
