Four Year Strong - Ironic lyrics
[Four Year Strong - Ironic lyrics]
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
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 advice that
You just didn't take
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 wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that
You just didn't take
Who would've thought it figures
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
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 ironicdon't you think
A little too ironicand, 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 good advice that
You just didn't take
Who would've thought it figures
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny
Funny way of helping you out helping you out
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
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 advice that
You just didn't take
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 wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that
You just didn't take
Who would've thought it figures
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

And everything blows up in your face
