Ironic 1


--by Alanis Morissette


An old man turned ninety-eight

He won the lottery 2 and died the next day

It's a black fly in your Chardonnay

It's a death row pardon two minutes late

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 good-bye

He waited his whole damned 3 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 4 up on you

When you think everything's okay and everything's going right

And life has a funny way of helping 5 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

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out

Helping you out
