歌词
An old man turned 98
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
And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
Hold up, wait a second!
That's actually not ironic
Right
If we are using irony as defined in Greek tragedy, I don't see how, like, a fly in your beverage applies
That's not irony
That's just like shitty
Can I please finish my piece?
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 it ironic
It's not though
It would be irony if the guy in the crash was like an airplane mechanic
How 'bout you guys let her finish?
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
And who would've thought—it figures!
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 everything's gone wrong
And everything blows up in your face
It's a traffic jam when you're already late
It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's like meeting the boy of my dreams
And then meeting his...
I'm not seeing anyone...
And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
A little too ironic
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
And who would've thought—it figures!
Well, life has a funny way
Of sneaking up on you
Yeah, life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
