The Lyrics

A little DNA--it was just what the shyster* planned fer.
He was splittin' strands with somatic-cell nuclear transfer.
Then I waited for several days,
Till I had my man, named Jose.
He was new, fast he grew; as we leave
Doc says, "Now, please pay, yeah."

Comfortable with my cloned sir;
He's like me, this man,
Dome wig and dope bong.
Comfortable with my cloned sir;
I was alone, but now he tags along.

We wear the same-size pants
Though his arms in my shirts fit tight in.
And the doc had said, "Don't piss
Him off; he gets miffed from excitin'."
He tried playing guitar in A--
Bad mood: Jose threw away
That Strat new; it's brand new; now it's junk.
Lithium saved the day.

Comfortable with my cloned sir;
He's lightened, this man,
A Lithium pawn.
Comfortable with my cloned sir;
I was alone, but now he tags along.

His regimen stopped;
Now he's looking like my enemy.
Then I heard Jose say,
"Man you know, you've earned my enmity."
I'd shop for a shrink for my man.
Oops, an oafish wimp-schmo I am.
Then the guy strode my way;
Now I fear the strength of Jose, yeah.

Cholerful is my cloned sir;
I don't like this man,
He's treating me wrong.
Combatful is my cloned sir;
He is well toned. . .
Unlike me--mighty strong

Pow-pow-pow-pow-pow-pow
Ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow
Meow-meow-meow-meow-meow-meow


*In "SOB," Robert Preston, playing a dubious doctor, corrects someone who had calls him a "shyster": "A shyster is an unscrupulous lawyer. An unscrupulous doctor is a quack!"

Great stuff, John. Very original, and it shows that science can really get out of control. Just like Jose in the song.

The "Dome wig and dope bong" had me howling. Luckily, they'll stone me before they clone me.
