Ironic by Alanis Morisette

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row (1)____________ two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic, don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a (2)________ (3)________ (4)________ you've (5)______________ paid
It's the good (6)____________ that you (7)________ didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He (8)____________ his (9)________________ and (10)____________ his kids good-bye
He waited his (11)__________ damn life to take that flight
And as the (12)__________ crashed down he thought
"Well, isn't this nice."
And isn't it ironic,l don't you think

It's like rain on your (13)______________ day
It's a free (14)________ when you've already paid
It's the (15)________ (16)____________ (17)________ you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures

Well, (18)________ 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 (19)____________________ blows up
In your face

A traffic jam when you're (20)______________ late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic, don't you think
A little too ironic, and yeah I (21)____________ do think

It's like rain on (22)________ wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures

Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of helping you out
(23)______________ you out.
