Alanis Morissette - Ironic lyrics

An old man turned ninety-eight<br>He won the lottery and died the next day<br>It's a black fly in your chardonnay<br>It's a death row pardon two minutes too late<br>Isn't it ironic... don't you think? <br><br>Chorus:<br>It's like rain on your wedding day<br>It's a free ride when you've already paid<br>It's the good advice that you just didn't take<br>Who would've thought... it figures<br><br>Mr. play it safe was afraid to fly<br>He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye<br>He waited his whole damn life to take that flight<br>And as the plane crashed down he thought<br>Well isn't this nice...<br>And isn't it ironic... don't you think? <br><br>Repeat chorus<br><br>Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you<br>When you think everything's okay and everything's going right<br>And life has a funny way of helping you out when<br>You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up<br>In your face<br><br>A traffic jam when you're already late<br>A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break<br>It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife<br>It's meeting the man of my dreams<br>And then meeting his beautiful wife<br>And isn't it ironic... don't you think? <br>A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...<br><br>Repeat chorus<br><br>Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you<br>Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out<br>Helping you out
