Ironic by Alanis Morissette

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 pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic...don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride (2)________ you've already paid
It's the (3)________ (4)____________ (5)________ you (6)________ didn't take
Who would've (7)______________ ... it figures

Mr. Play-It-Safe was (8)____________ to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to (9)________ that flight
And as the (10)__________ crashed down he thought
'Well isn't (11)________ 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 (12)____________ that you just didn't take
Who would've (13)______________ ... it figures

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you (14)__________ 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' (15)________ on your cigarette break
It's like ten (16)________________ spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then (17)______________ 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 wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the (18)________ (19)____________ (20)________ you just didn't take
Who would've thought ... it figures

Life has a funny way of (21)________________ up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of (22)______________ you out
Helping you out
