He won the lottery and died the next day

Isn't it ironic... don't you think?

It's like rain on your wedding day
就像你结婚的大好日子下雨
It's a free ride when you've already paid
就像刚买车票就有人要免费载你一程
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
就像不听他人言结果吃了亏
Who would've thought... it figures

You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows upIn your face
在你感到一切都很糟糕的时候
A traffic jam when you're already late
快要迟到了，还赶上大堵车
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
终于能点根烟休息下，才发现此地禁止吸烟
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
