Ironic (Acoustic Album Version) Lyrics

Alanis Morissette

Hey yiah yiah Yiah yea yea Hey yiah
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 weddin' 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 was afraid to fly He packed his suitcase and 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?
It's like rain on your weddin' 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, 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
A traffic jam when you're already late A no smoking sign on your cigarette break It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife It's meetin' the man of my dreams And then meetin' his beautiful wife, umm 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 weddin' 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
And well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you And life has a funny, funny way of helpin' you out Helpin' you out
