lyrics | learn to sing Ironic

Yeah, yeah, yeah, an old man turned 98

He won the lottery and died the next day

It's a black fly when you're shattering

It's a death row pardon, don't mean it's 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 have thought it figures

Mr. Plate Safe was afraid to fly

He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye

He waited his whole damn life to take that flight

He noticed 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 have thought it figures

Life has a funny way of sticking up on you

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

Life has a funny way of helping you out when you think everything goes wrong and everything

blows up in your face.

Traffic jam when you're already late and 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 your 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 have thought it'd figure

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out

Helping you out
