London, Sep 6 - Pop singer Christina Aguilera almost lost the lyrics to her new song, after writing the track on a napkin which was cleared away by a waiter.

The 'Candyman' singer felt inspired to write the track while she was dining at Los Angeles' Osteria Mozza Italian restaurant and since she couldn't find any paper she decided to put the lyrics on a napkin, reports contactmusic.com.

When Christina and her husband Jordan Bratman had finished eating, the waiter came to remove the dirty dishes and the pop star failed to notice he had also cleared the napkin away.

'Christina wasn't looking when the busboy took the inked-up napkin.
