Tommy James vs. Weird Al Yankovic



I Think We’re Alone Now
Tommy James & The Shondells
Children behave
That’s what they say
When we’re together
And watch how you play
They don’t understand
And so we’re
Runnin’ just as fast as we can
Holdin’ onto one another’s hands
Tryin’ to get away
Into the night
And then you put your arms around me
As we tumble to the ground
And then you say

I think we’re alone now
There doesn’t seem to be
Anyone around
I think we’re alone now
The beating of our hearts
Is the only sound

Look at the way
We gotta hide what we’re doin’
‘Cause what would they say
If they ever knew
And so we’re
Runnin’ just as fast as we can
Holdin’ onto one another’s hands
Tryin’ to get away
Into the night
And then you put your arms around me
As we tumble to the ground
And then you say

I think we’re alone now
There doesn’t seem to be
Anyone around
I think we’re alone now
The beating of our hearts
Is the only sound

I think we’re alone now
There doesn’t seem to be
Anyone around
I think we’re alone now
The beating of our hearts
Is the only sound

I think we’re alone now
There doesn’t seem to be
Anyone around
I think we’re alone now
The beating of our hearts
Is the only sound





I Think I’m A Clone Now
Weird Al Yankovic
Isn’t it strange
Feels like I’m lookin’ in the mirror
What would people say
If only they knew that I was
Part of some geneticist’s plan
Plan plan plan
Born to be a carbon copy man
Man man man
There in a petri dish
Late one night
They took a donor’s body cell
And fertilized a human egg
And so I say

I think I’m a clone now
There’s always two of me just
A-hangin’ around
I think I’m a clone now
‘Cause every chromosome
Is a hand-me-down

Look at the way
We go out walkin’ close together
I guess you could say
I’m really beside myself
I still remember how it began
Gan gan gan
They produced a carbon copy man
Man man man
Born in a science lab
Late one night
Without a mother or a father
Just a test tube
And a womb with a view

I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
There’s always two of me just
A-hangin’ around
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
‘Cause every chromosome
Is a hand-me-down
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
‘Cause I can stay at home
While I’m out of town
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
‘Cause every pair of genes
Is a hand-me-down

Signin’ autographs for my fans
Come and meet the carbon copy man
Livin’ in stereo
It’s all right
Well I can be my own best friend
And I can send myself for pizza
So I say

I think I’m a clone now
Another one of me
Always hangin’ around
I think I’m a clone now
‘Cause every chromosome
Is a hand-me-down
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
I’ve been on Oprah Winfrey
I’m world renowned
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
And every pair of genes
Is a hand-me-down
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
That’s my genetic twin
Always hangin’ around
I think I’m a clone now
A clone now
‘Cause every chromosome
Is a hand-me-down

I think I’m a clone now
A clone now

  2. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Roschelle!!! Considering the fact that you are in charge of the nursing end of an ER, I would think that you are an expert on weirdness. Although...

  7. Weird Al is a funny guy but I like that song so Tommy James wins out.

  8. Am I going to be the lone person who thinks Weird Al is funny?? There is something creatively talented about his "style" of music. He makes me laugh and try to sing my own versions of current songs.

  10. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Lin!!! Oh, I would love to hear you sing some of your versions. If that is not really possible, the lyrics would suffice.
