Ironic
Composição: Alanis Morissette
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?
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
And 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 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
And 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 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...
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
And who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
E é quando você não espera. Procura evitar tudo de que não gosta, que sabe que não te fará bem, mas quando vê é tarde demais, aconteceu.
É engraçado como a vida nos faz de bonecos, achamos que temos o domínio sobre ela, temos a ilusão de que comandamos os nossos passos e atos.
Olhamos pra trás e vimos que muito do que fizemos valeu a pena, outras coisas foram perda de tempo ou também adquirimos conhecimento, melhor dizendo.
Vamos nos preservando a cada dia de coisas que não achamos bom, mas acaba sendo irônico realmente, porque quanto mais evitamos, mais certeza de que irá acontecer. Se você acha que vai dar errado mas mesmo assim faz, concerteza vai dar errado. Se você acha que vai dar errado e deixa de fazer, por ironia alguma coisa irá dar errado no que você escolher fazer.
Quando achamos que aquilo não vai nunca acontecer, passa uma hora, um dia, um mês e acontece.
A vida... uma pura ironia e que ainda achamos que temos domínio algum sobre isso.

Se a gente não sabe, inventa'
