"Almost Paradox." Sung to the tune of "Almost Paradise" by Mike Reno & Ann
Wilson (of Loverboy & Heart).
NOTES: I've always liked this sweet, but still slightly rocking power ballad from "Footloose." Besides, the word paradise even sounds like paradox, so the two of them together was a perfect combo for me.
I thought our mission was done for the day.
'Cause the newspaper changed, my son ain't goin' to jail.
Jen saw herself, passed out and we rescued her.
We just wanted to go home.
Oh, how could we have known, that we were in an alternate reality?
CHORUS 1.
Oh, almost paradox.
Old Biff stole the time machine.
Almost Paradox.
How could he not be seen?
I swear that Hilldale looked the same, but it's not.
Paradox.
NEXT VERSE.
It seems an angry family is in my house.
I'd almost gotten hit, before I ran like a mouse.
The courthouse is a scummy casino with Biff in charge.
Life is so sad, it's true.
What the h*ll did I do?
'Cause now we have no future on our hands.
CHORUS 2.
Oh, almost paradox.
The ripple effect will soon catch up.
Almost Paradox.
'55 we'll have to end up.
I swear I didn't mean to buy that almanac.
Paradox.
BRIDGE.
And in the car, the book is not so far away.
It's getting' closer, closer every day.
CHORUS 3.
Almost Paradox.
I stole it back just in time.
Almost Paradox.
The future is back tonight.
I swear that I can see Biff in manure twice now.
Paradox.
Paradox.
Paradox.
