Ironic

Lyrics

An old man turned ninety-eight
 He won the lottery and died the next day
 It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
 It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
 And isn't it ironic
 Don't you think?
 It's like rain on your wedding day
 It's a free ride when you've already paid
 It's the good advice that you just didn't take
 Who would've thought
 It figures
 Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
 He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
 He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
 And as the plane crashed down he thought
 "Well isn't this nice..."
 And isn't it ironic
 Don't you think?
 It's like rain on your wedding day
 It's a free ride when you've already paid
 It's the good advice that you just didn't take
 Who would've thought
 It figures
 Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
 When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
 And life has a funny way of helping you out when
 You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
 In your face
 A traffic jam when you're already late
 A "No Smoking" sign on your cigarette break
 It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
 It's meeting the man of my dreams
 And then meeting his beautiful wife
 And isn't it ironic
 Don't you think?
 A little too ironic
 And, yeah, I really do think
 It's like rain on your wedding day
 It's a free ride when you've already paid
 It's the good advice that you just didn't take
 Who would've thought
 It figures
 And life has a funny way of helping you out when
 You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
 In your face
