Steve Taylor I Want to Be a Clone lyrics

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
Cloneliness 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
Cloneliness 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


Send in the clones, I kind of wanted to tell my friends
And people about it, you know, what
You're still a baby, you have to grow, give it twenty years or so
'Cause if you want to be one of his you gotta act like one of us

Be a clone and kiss conviction, goodnight
Cloneliness 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
