lyrics

The first clone looked younger than life
Appeared stronger than truth.
One better than real
One newer than truth
The first clone looked around at its life
Its birth and its right
When you’re second Behind
At the head of the line

The imperfect copy
Was all original
Despite duplication
soul is individual
From the splice to the road
A seed was sewn
And now a new one grows.

The first clone said why am I here
And Then where do I go
I feel so alone
Even when I'm at home

It was a dream to someone
But not to me
I want to be someone
but theres already one
just like me

The first clone was a challenge to god
Whats a young clone to do
Cant go back to the tube
Must be the first of the new Sheeple
