it's like rain on your wedding day
it's a free ride when you've already paid
it'a the good advice that you just didn't take
who would've thought ... it figures

mr. play it save was afraid to fly
he packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
he waited his whole damn life to take that flight
and as the plane crashed down he thought
'well isn't it this nice...'
and isn't it ironic ... don't you think

it's like rain ...

a traffic jam when you're already late
a non-smoking sign on your cigarette break
it's like ten thousands spoons when all you need is a knife
it's meeting the man of my dreams
and then meeting his beautiful wife

isn't it ironic ... don't think?!
