''Did someone mention Irony, I know a song about that...''


http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/table_of_malcontents/images/ironic708949.jpg


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


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 goodbye

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 it ironic... don't you think


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


Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

When you think everything's okay and everything's going right

And life has a funny way of helping you out when

You think everything's gone wrong and everything 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...


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


Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out

Helping you out

1>You gotta admit though, they're funny.


2>This puts a smile one everyone's face.


3 [third strike goes here]


3>I'll leave the gurning pics up though cos they are funny


>Wanna see a picture of a really ugly bird?


A beguilingly personable bird; in fact, the only photo of any interest in the thread.


Never mind. For light relief, Thora Hird appears, with Jack Warner and Gordon Jackson, in The Quatermass Xperiment (film, not original TV series) on BBC Four tomorrow. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0049646/
