Songtext von Ironic

Hey, yeah, yeah Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey 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 And who would've thought?

Don't you think? A little too ironic And, 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 Yeah, life has a funny way Of sneaking up on you Life has a funny, funny way Of helping you out Helping you out
