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 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 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 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
有个98岁的老头
他中了乐透
可隔天就死得透透
你正享用一杯霞多丽的光景
却发现酒杯里的红头苍蝇
国王颁布了死囚的赦令
可慢了两分钟没赶上行刑
你觉得，这难道不是一种滑稽
就像婚礼现场下起了大雨
你买好了车票
却发现有免费的顺风车去同一个目的地
曾有个很好的建议
你理都不理
谁能想到 它真的揭开了谜底
“安全第一”先生最怕坐飞机
他收拾好行李 和孩子们亲吻告别启程离去
他蹉跎了他的一生
才等来自己的航班
他刚说完“坐飞机还挺赞”
接着就发生了空难
你觉得，这难道不是一种滑稽
就像婚礼现场下起了大雨
你买好了车票
却发现有免费的顺风车去同一个目的地
曾有个很好的建议
你理都不理
谁能想到 它真的揭开了谜底
当你觉得顺风顺水万事如意
生活总有办法来教育你
当你觉得四面楚歌万念俱灰
生活总有办法来拯救你
你已经约会迟到心急火燎
却遇到交通堵塞动弹不了
你掏出烟卷想来个小憩
却发现哪儿哪儿都是禁烟区
侍者给你端来一万把勺子
却独独少了你要的一把刀子
你终于在转角遇见了魂牵梦萦的男神
却发现牵着他手的妻子美丽动人
你觉得，这难道不是一种滑稽
我的确觉得，这是社会的毒打和暴击
就像婚礼现场下起了大雨
你买好了车票
却发现有免费的顺风车去同一个目的地
曾有个很好的建议
你理都不理
谁能想到 它真的揭开了谜底
当你觉得顺风顺水万事如意
生活总有办法来教育你
当你觉得四面楚歌万念俱灰
生活总有办法来拯救你
