Ironic Experience

Listen to/read the lyrics of "Ironic" by Alanis Morisette and then reflect an ironic experience of your own. Be descriptive in your entry then check out your classmates responses on their blogs.

An old man turned 98
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 and you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
And who would've thought it figures

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
Yeah, I really do think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride and you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't taske
And who would've thought it figures

And yeah, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And yeah, life has a funny, funny way...of helping you out
Helping you out
