8. Ironic |
|
|
|
|
|
An old man turned 98 |
|
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 a good advice that you just didn't take |
|
And 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 a good advice that you just didn't take |
|
And who would've thought |
|
It figures |
|
|
|
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 |
|
|
|
It's 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 like 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 |
|
Ooh 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 a good advice that you just didn't take |
|
And who would've thought |
|
It figures |
|
|
|
Life has a funny way |
|
Of sneaking up on you |
|
And life has a funny, funny way |
|
Of helping you out |
|
Helping you out |
