Ironic by Alanis Morrisete

(Hey yeah yeah...)

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 weddin' day
It's a free ride when you've (2)______________ paid
It's the (3)________ advice (4)________ you just didn't take
And who would've thought, it figures
Mr. Play It (5)________ was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole (6)________ life to (7)________ (8)________ 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 (9)________ weddin' day
It's a (10)________ 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 (11)__________ way
Of sneakin' up on you
When you (12)__________ everything's okay
And everything's goin' right, right...
And life has a funny way
Nobody helpin' you out
When you (13)__________ everything's gone wrong
And (14)____________________ 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 (15)________________ spoons
When all you (16)________ is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And (17)________ meetin' his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic
Don't you think?
A little too ironic
And yeah, I really do think
It's (18)________ rain on (19)________ weddin' day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good (20)____________ that you (21)________ didn't take
And who would've thought, it figures...
And your (22)________ has a funny way
Of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way
Of (23)______________ you out
Helping you out
