歌词
An old man
有一个迟暮之年的老人
Turned ninety-eight
已经过了九十八岁的生日
He won the lottery
他头天刚刚买中了头彩的彩票
And died the next day
第二天就寿终正寝了
It's a back fly
这就像有一只黑苍蝇
in your chardonnay
被发现在你刚要品尝的美酒里
It's a death row pardon
就像你刚刚被执行死刑
Two minutes too late
两分钟后政府决定赦免所有死刑犯
Isn't it ironic
是不是有点讽刺
Don't you think
你不这么觉得吗
Mr.play it safe
郝安全先生
Was afraid to fly
一直害怕搭乘飞机
He packed his suitcase
一天他终于鼓起勇气，收拾行李
[And kissed his kids goodbye
吻别了妻儿
He waited his whole damn life
他用尽了一生的勇气
To take that flight
来搭上这乘飞机
And as the plane crashed down he thought
就在飞机坠落的一瞬间，郝安全不禁在想
Well,isn't this nice
嘿 这可真是不错啊
Isn't it ironic
难道不是吗
Don't you think
你不这么觉得吗
It's like rain
这就像一场狂风暴雨
on your wedding day
正好赶在了你的婚礼现场
It's a free ride
就像你已经打好了出租车
when you've already paid
却发现有免费的顺风车可以搭
It's the good advice
就像一个绝妙的建议
That you just didn't take
但你偏偏就没有采纳
Who would've thought,it figures
谁能想到呢？真有意思呀
It's like rain
人生就和阴晴不定的天气一样
A traffic jam
像不像当你已经迟到的时候
When you're already late
你发现前面又发生了一起追尾事故
A no-smoking sign
像不像你刚掏出火机 打算吞云吐雾的小憩一会
On your cigarette break
却发现这里是禁烟区
It's like ten thousand spoons
就像当你只是想要找个水果刀的时候
When all you need is a knife
却在厨房里找到了一万把勺子
It's meeting the man of my dreams
就像我终于遇到了梦中情人
And then meeting his beautiful wife
然后又不得不和他美丽动人的妻子握手
And isn't it ironic
真是讽刺呀
Don't you think
难道不是吗
A little too ironic
这可真是太可笑了
And yeah i really do think
至少我是这么认为的
It's like rain
一场瓢泼大雨啊
on your wedding day
就偏偏赶在你刚要在婚礼宣誓的时候
It's a free ride
好朋友告诉你可以送你一程
when you've already paid
但是你刚叫了辆快车
It's the good advice
一个绝妙无比的建议
That you just didn't take
但你就偏偏没采纳
Who would've thought,it figures
谁能想到呢 只能说人生无常啊
It's like rain
人生很难以预料
It's like rain
就是像一场突然的大雨
on your wedding day
正巧赶在了你的婚礼现场
It's a free ride
就像是刚刚得知有顺风车可以搭
when you've already paid
但是你已经呼叫了出租车
It's the good advice
就像是一个足以改变你人生的建议
That you just didn't take
但是你却没有选择听取
Who would've thought,it figures
世事无常，惟愿安好吧
