oh man turned 98 he won the lottery

and died the next day

it's a black flag

and your chardonnay

death row pardon 2 minutes too late

(chrous)

isn't it ironic, don't you think?

it's like rain on your wedding day

it's a free ride and you already paid

good advice that you just didn't take

and who would have thought

it figure



he played it safe was afraid to fly

he packed his suitcase 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



well life has a funny way

of helping you out when you think every things okay

everythings goin right



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 like meeting the man of my dreams

then meetinghis beautiful wife



(chorus)



isn't it ironic?

don't you think?
