Ironic -Alanis Morrisete
Gap-fill exercise
An old man turned
He won the lottery and died the next
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two
too late
Isn't it
... don't you think
(chorus)
It's like rain on your
day
It's a
ride when you've already
It's the good
that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He
his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole
life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he
"Well, isn't this nice."
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think
(repeat chorus)
Well life has a
way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone
and everthing blows up
In your face
A traffic
when you're already late
A no-smoking
on your cigarette break
It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his
wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic.. and yeah I really do think...
(repeat chorus)
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of
you out
Helping you out
