Ironic by Alanis Morrisete
(Hey yeah yeah...)
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 (1)__________ row (2)____________ two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
It's like (3)________ on (4)________ weddin' day
It's a (5)________ ride when you've already paid
It's the good (6)____________ (7)________ you just didn't take
And who would've thought, it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He (8)____________ his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He (9)____________ his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed (10)________ he thought
Well, isn't this nice...
And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
It's like (11)________ on (12)________ weddin' day
It's a free (13)________ when you've already paid
It's the good advice (14)________ you just didn't take
And who would've thought, it figures
Well (15)________ has a (16)__________ way
Of sneakin' up on you
When you (17)__________ everything's okay
And everything's goin' right, right...
And (18)________ has a funny way
Nobody helpin' you out
When you (19)__________ everything's gone wrong
And everything blows up in (20)________ face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no (21)______________ (22)________ on (23)________ cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons
When all you need is a knife
It's (24)______________ the man of my dreams
And (25)________ meetin' his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
A little too ironic
And yeah, I really do think
It's like rain on your weddin' 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...
And (26)________ life has a funny way
Of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way
Of (27)______________ you out
Helping you out
