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



chorus

And isn't it ironic? Don't you think?

It's like rain on your wedding day

It's a free ride and you've already paid

It's the good advice that you just didn't take

And who would've thought it figures



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 and you've already paid

It's the good advice that you just didn't taske

And who would've thought it figures



And yeah, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

And yeah, life has a funny, funny way...of helping you out

Helping you out
