lyrics

He almost had a car
He almost had a car
He almost had a car
now its up on blocks
Now he’s always walking

He almost had a job
He almost had a job
He almost had a job
he got fired on the spot
Now he’s always begging

It ain’t hard to see
He’s living in a dream
There was nowhere he could lean
He won the lottery
Now he’s just a stoned kid

He almost had a girl
He almost had a girl
He almost had a girl
but she went to see the world
Now his heart is broken

He had a good idea
He had a good idea
He had a good idea
but it was kinda weird
Now he’s always joking

It ain’t hard to see
He’s living in a dream
There was nowhere he could lean
He won the lottery
Now he’s just a stoned kid
