The Lyrics
DKTOS? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlnyyabSLIE
You’ve become a twin
Twice the man you were before you saw that cloner
You walked right in his door
Said “What I’m looking for -
A way to stop being called a loner”
You’ve become a twin
Feeling quite beside yourself, a single couple
You’ll never come to harm
‘Cause you are now “fourarmed”
And with some extra cash you could become quintuple
Don’t be feeling dread, just dial that dial
And pay for your duplication
You get a splitting headache but in just a while
Your replica arrives, and all without gestation
You’ve become a twin
All your friends and family are seeing double
In poker it’s unfair – you’ve always got a pair
And folks are puzzled when
You’re here and there
All you gotta do is dial that dial
Experience bifurcation
You’re at your own debut ‘cause in a little while
You’re talking to yourself, a singular sensation
You’ve become a twin
Maybe you should star in TV ads for Xerox
And then you say with glee, “my lawyers all agree
I’m now my next of kin –
Myself and me”
I and me
Myself and me
Check my ID
I am now a twin
Can’t you see
That I am we
Duality
Is for me
Twice the man you were before you saw that cloner
You walked right in his door
Said “What I’m looking for -
A way to stop being called a loner”
You’ve become a twin
Feeling quite beside yourself, a single couple
You’ll never come to harm
‘Cause you are now “fourarmed”
And with some extra cash you could become quintuple
Don’t be feeling dread, just dial that dial
And pay for your duplication
You get a splitting headache but in just a while
Your replica arrives, and all without gestation
You’ve become a twin
All your friends and family are seeing double
In poker it’s unfair – you’ve always got a pair
And folks are puzzled when
You’re here and there
All you gotta do is dial that dial
Experience bifurcation
You’re at your own debut ‘cause in a little while
You’re talking to yourself, a singular sensation
You’ve become a twin
Maybe you should star in TV ads for Xerox
And then you say with glee, “my lawyers all agree
I’m now my next of kin –
Myself and me”
I and me
Myself and me
Check my ID
I am now a twin
Can’t you see
That I am we
Duality
Is for me

Rex! You've done it! You posted for Artistry this time and actually varied choruses! Great job! And with a lot of cloneing humor to boot. This was a great one, almost as good as Weird Al's "I Think I'm A Clone Now".
Me, Myself, and ! will try not to spam this parody with identical comments. :-) Score 555 for Professor Rex Ungericht the Deadly Duplicator.
I hate you
Tricky idea, very well done
Excellent--I did a double take!
Twice the votes for this parody! Also, I loved Sir Wolfy's comment about Duke Dudley, the Deadly Duplicator!
Very good Xerox line and parody. The subject of this parody might be so happy he's beside himself.
I liked it. Ashley and Rachel, my twin baby nieces, liked it. As for my evil twin brother, well, last I checked he's still out of commission. (See "Total Eclipse of Bernard.") And who cares what he thinks anyway.
It's always fun to find the inner joke in your parodies. "Here YOU come AGAIN" (heh, heh, heh). It's kinda like a game for the reader to find out how Rex switched around the meaning this time. Great stuff Rex.
Having posted a couple clone songs on this site myself, I congratulate you on your choice of subject. Very well done. First song I can recall that used the word "bifurcation".
Great
(artistry) I am beside myself with the cleverness of this. 555
This is just what the local Folk Music and Fiddlers' Society need to add to their songbook. It will be the first song written since 1729 to make the list. Thanks for your help!
(Artistry) I wish I had a clone, he could go and buy all the Transformers I want :P And then I could vote 555 twice on this awesome parody. But I suppose once will have to do...for now.
Now that was original Rex, not to make promises, but this should get my 5 without question. While I can't point out any one line as my favorite, the whole thing was laugh-worthy. You've Become a Twin works as a title for many day-time soap opera episodes, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I could actually see this happening, where cloning becomes like Bigger Breast Implants. I can see it now, tomorrows music and movie stars getting themselves clones, the fad that will replace Baby-Buying, awesome job!
I agree with BAD. This was excellent and very very clever. All of your punch lines work and are laugh-out-loud funny.555+++
i wish that i was a twin to afrend
my name olivia
