anneke van giersbergen - ironic (alanis morissette cover) lyrics

ironic
an old man, turned 98
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
and 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 d-mn 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?
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
and who would’ve thought? it figures
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 thousand 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?
yeah i really do 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
and who would’ve thought?
it figures
life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
and life has a funny, funny way, of helping you out
helping you out
