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
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 wholedamn 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?
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.
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you think
everything's ok and everythings going right and life has a
funny way of helping you out when You think evertyhing's gone
wrong and everthing 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...
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
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you and life has a
funny way of helping you out, helping you out.
