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
  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 the good advice that you just didn't take
  And 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
  And who would've thought, it figures

  And yeah, well, life has a funny way
  Of sneaking up on you
  And life has a funny, funny way
  Of helping you out
  Helping you out
