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?
Taken from the song ‘Ironic’ by Alanis Morissette from her album Jagged Little Pill (1995)

Talk about a song that for overplayed upon its release. By a lot. 🙂
It was such a great song though. And the first album I really remember thinking was class.
I really like Alanis Morissette. And the song “Ironic”, after the launch was publicized widely in my country on all TV and Radio!
Unfortunately, sometimes life is ironic to us!
Have a great day, Alex! 🙂
Seeing the humour in the frustrations in life is a big part of the tapestry of life ha.
I love every line in this song!
The whole album was brilliant but this song is just so memorable. It’s impossible not to sing along to without a smile.
Aaaand it’s official. Tomorrow will be an Alanis day.
If anyone could turn a bad day into one of the funniest posts of the year…
Literally just pushed PLAY. yesssss….
I’m resisting the urge to belt out this chorus…screw it.
IT’S LIKE RAAA-EEE-AAAAIIIIN ON YOUR WEDDING DAY!
