'My Corduroyed Life' - Mark A's Journal
I hate that woman…
Rob loves Alanis, and insists on playing her dismal music frequently as punishment for me even contemplating playing something that is actually good (but he doesn’t like) such as The Wonder Stuff. I find her music the most airy fairy, flat, dull, whiney, revolting blither that music has to offer. I’d prefer to listen to Drum ‘n’ Bass…
Not only is her music enough to make me want to poke out my own eardrums with a rusty knitting needle, but she’s a bit thick as well. I recently actually bothered to listen to the lyrics of Ironic as Rob further tortured me with the new acoustic monstrosity the bint has released to commemorate 10 years of the repugnant Jagged Little Pill. She doesn’t seem to understand the proper meaning of the word ironic…
Ironic
i-ron-ic
adj.
1: humorously sarcastic or mocking; "dry humor"; "an ironic remark often conveys an intended meaning obliquely"; "an ironic novel"; "an ironical smile"; "with a wry Scottish wit" [syn: dry, ironical, wry]
2: characterized by often poignant difference or incongruity between what is expected and what actually is; "madness, an ironic fate for such a clear thinker"; "it was ironical that the well-planned scheme failed so completely”
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
That’s not ironic, it’s merely unfortunate (or lucky, if you’re his son/ daughter!)
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
That’s not ironic, merely mildly irritating
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
That’s not ironic, it’s negligence
Isn't it ironic ... don't you think
No
Chorus:
It's like rain on your wedding day
That’s not ironic, it’s just upsetting and means all your photos are taken inside
It's a free ride when you've already paid
That’s not ironic, it’s merely a coincidence
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
That’s not ironic, it’s just something to learn from
Who would've thought ... it figures
It doesn’t
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...'
That’s not ironic, it’s just a sad coincidence… and I bet it didn’t happen either
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think
No
Chorus
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
What wisdom, what insight… What a crock
It's a traffic jam when you're already late
That’s not ironic, it’s bad time management
It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
That’s not ironic, it’s pretty much a given!
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
That’s not ironic, it’s time to go up the Wilko’s
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
That’s not ironic, it’s just irritating, frustrating and demoralizing
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
No
A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...
Well I don’t… bint
Repeat Chorus
Oh I dislike her intensely – her music makes me retch.
Have fun,
