Ironic

An old man turned ninety-eight

He won the lottery and he 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 he was afraid to fly

He packed his suitcase and he 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?

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

Well life has a funny way of sneakin' up on you

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

And life has a funny way nobody helpin' you out when

You think everyhing's gone wrong and everything blows up in your face

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

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 everyhing's gone wrong and everything blows up in your face
