這是我喜歡的一首歌,忘了好久,今天看到這個單詞才想起這首歌,
馬上給他聽個兩三遍,把歌詞放在這裡,隨時想到就能跟著唱。
歌詞很詼諧,很諷刺,值得欣賞....
可以在youtube找到MV,聽Alanis Morissette的特殊嗓音,別有一股風味。
Ironic ~by Alanis Morissette, From Jagged Little Pill
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
Isn't it ironic... don't you think
Chorus:
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 good-bye
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 this ironic ... don't you think?
Repeat Chorus
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's ok and everythings going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out
When You think evertyhing's gone wrong and everthing 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.
Repeat Chorus
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of helping you out helping you out
