Ironic (En Estudio)

[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

Isn't it ironic

Don't you think?

[Chorus]

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!

[Verse 2]

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"

[Pre-Chorus]

And isn't it ironic

Don't you think?

[Chorus]

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!

[Bridge]

And 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

[Verse 3]

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 meeting the man of my dreams

And then meeting his beautiful wife

[Pre-Chorus]

And isn't it ironic

Don't you think?

A little too ironic

Yeah, I really do think

[Chorus]

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!

[Outro]

And life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

And life has a funny, funny way of helping you out

Helping you out

Helping you out
