Bowling for Soup
Almost (Live 2018)
[Verse 1]
I almost got drunk at school at 14
Where I almost made out with the homecoming queen
Who almost went on to be Miss Texas
But lost to a slut with much bigger breastes
I almost dropped out and moved to LA
Where I was almost famous for- let me hear ya sing it!

[Chorus]
(Almost had you)
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost loved you
I almost wish you would've loved me too

[Verse 2]
I almost held up a grocery store
Where I almost did 5 years and then 7 more
'Cause I almost got popped for a fight with a thug
'Cause he almost made off with a bunch of the drugs
That I almost got hooked on 'cause you ran away
I wish I would've had the nеrve to ask you to stay

[Chorus]
And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't еven know it
You kept me guessin' and now I'm destined
To spend my time missin' you
I almost wish you would've loved me too
[Bridge]
Here I go thinking 'bout all the things I could've done
I'm gonna need a forklift 'cause all the baggage weighs a ton
(Baggage weighs a ton)
I know we had our problems, I can't remember one

[Spoken: Jaret Reddick & Chris Burney]
Hey Chris
You got em with the dramatic pause!
Did you see it? And I was doing this too, I was going...
Um...
That was me! That was some lead singer shit! I was fishin' for woos right there
Keep filming and reel them in!
Reeled ya right in!
Do you know this next part? Why don't ya sing along with me, here ya go

[Verse 3]
I almost forgot to say something else
And if I can't fit it in, I'll keep it all to myself
I almost wrote a song about you today
But I tore it all up and then I threw it away

[Chorus]
And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't even know it
You kept me guessin', now I'm destined
To spend my time missin' you
[Outro]
Almost had you
(Almost had you)
Almost had you
(Almost had)
Almost had you
I almost wish you would've loved me too
(Wish you would've loved me too)

[Spoken: Jaret Reddick]
Wasn't that awesome?
