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 pardon
two minutes too late.

And isn't it ironic...
Don't you think?

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.

Who would've thought... It figures.

Mr. Play It Safe
was afraid to fly.
He packed his suitcase
and kissed his kids goodbye.
He waited his whole damn life
to take that flight,
and as the plane crashed down
he thought:
"Well isn't this nice..."

And isn't it ironic...
Don't you think?

Well 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.

A traffic jam
when you're already late.
A no-smoking sign
on your cigarette break.
It's like ten thousVelikost pisaveand 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 really do think...

Life has a funny way
of sneaking up on you.
Life has a funny, funny way
of helping you out.
Helping you out...

Glede pesmi se ne bi mogla bolj strinjat, je pa res da je že dokaj zlajnana, če je pozorno ne poslušaš.
