Lyrics

[00:11.000] An old man turned ninety-eight
[00:16.000] He won the lottery and died the next day
[00:21.400] It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
[00:30.700] It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
[00:36.600] Isn't it ironic...don't you think
[00:41.900] It's like rain on your wedding day
[00:48.500] It's a free ride when you've already paid
[00:54.500] It's the good advice that you just didn't take
[01:00.500] Who would've thought...it figures
[01:06.500] Mr.Play it safe was afraid to fly
[01:11.100] He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goos-bye
[01:17.700] He waited his whole demn life to take that flight
[01:23.700] And as the plane crashed down he thought
[01:26.700] "Well isn't this nice..."
[01:31.700] And isn't it ironic...don't you think
[01:34.600] It's like rain on your wedding day
[01:41.600] It's a free ride when you've already paid
[01:46.600] It's the good advice that you just didn't take
[01:52.600] Who would've thought...it figures
[01:58.600] Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
[02:02.600] When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
[02:09.600] And life has a funny way of helping you out when
[02:14.500] You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
[02:17.500] In your face
[02:22.500] A traffic jam when you're already late
[02:26.500] A no-smoking sigh on your cigarette break
[02:32.500] It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
[02:38.500] It's meeting the man of my dreams
[02:41.500] And then meeting his beautiful wife
[02:45.500] And isn't it ironic...don't you think
[02:50.500] A little too ironic...and yeah I really do think...
[02:55.500] It's like rain on your wedding day
[03:01.500] It's a free ride when you've already paid
[03:07.500] It's the good advice that you just didn't take
[03:13.500] Who would've thought...it figures
[03:23.500] Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
[03:30.500] Life has a funny,funny way of helping you out
[03:37.500] Helping you out
[03:42.500]
