Ironic Songtext
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, aye, aye, aye
An old man turned 98
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 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, 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
Traffic jam when you′re already late
A "No Smoking" sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 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 a good advice that you just didn't take
And who would′ve thought it figures?
And, yeah, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you, yeah
Life has a funny, funny way helping you out, helping you out
Yeah, aye, aye, aye
An old man turned 98
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 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, 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
Traffic jam when you′re already late
A "No Smoking" sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife

A little too ironic
And, yeah, I really do think

It′s a good advice that you just didn't take
And who would′ve thought it figures?
And, yeah, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you, yeah
Life has a funny, funny way helping you out, helping you out
