ironic (mtv unplugged) - alanis morissette lyrics
[intro]
hey, yeah, yeah
yeah, ah*ah*ah, yeah
[verse 1]
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
[pre*chorus]
isn’t it ironic?
don’t you think?
[chorus]
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!
[verse 2]
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?”
[pre*chorus]
and isn’t it ironic?
don’t you think?
[chorus]
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!
[bridge]
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
[verse 3]
it’s 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
[pre*chorus]
and isn’t it ironic?
don’t you think?
a little too ironic
and yeah, i really do think
[chorus]
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!
[outro]
and yeah, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
and life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
helping you out
