Hey yiah yiah   Yiah yea yea   Hey yiah      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   Isn't it ironic   Don't you think?      It's like rain on your weddin' 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      Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly   He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye   He waited his whole damn life to take that 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 your weddin' 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      Well life has a funny way of sneakin' up on you   When you think everything's okay and everything's goin' right, right   And life has a funny way nobody helpin' you out when   You think everyhing's gone wrong and everything 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 thousand spoons when all you need is a knife   It's meetin' the man of my dreams   And then meetin' his beautiful wife, umm   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 weddin' 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      And well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you   And life has a funny, funny way of helpin' you out   Helpin' you out
