Текст песни Ironic, Alanis Morissette

00:00

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
Isn t it ironic... don t you think
Chorus:
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 damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well, isn t this nice." And Isn t this ironic ... don t you
think?
Repeat Chorus
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 evertyhing 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 10,000 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...
Repeat Chorus
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
