Ironic — Alanis Morisette

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 to late

Isn`t it ironic... don`t you think

Chorus: 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 have thought... it figures

Mr. play-it-safe was afraid to fly He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye He waited his whole damn life just to take that flight And as the plane crashed down he thouht "well isn`t this nice..."

And isn`t it ironic... don`t you think?

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you When you think everything is 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 are 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 then meeting his beautiful wife

And isn`t it ironic... don`t you think? A little too ironic... and yeah i really do think...

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out - helping you out
