每日一歌：Ironic 如此讽刺的爱情 (12.4)

LULU

当爱人走向婚礼的殿堂

可是和他（她）牵手的人却不是你

是不是会有种痛彻心扉的伤

因为那一地的玫瑰花瓣，是心碎的痕迹

爱情的决然与痛苦

都在这首歌里宣泄与呐喊

自嘲着告诉自己还要坚强

。。。。。。

“It＇s like rain on your wedding day”

Ironic
                                             －－by 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 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
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 damned 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
