Black Fly in your Chardonnay: Wine is fancy, high-class. you don't expect a fly in it. But there is! Alas, situational irony.
You need a fork; instead there are 10,000 spoons. Situational Irony.
Cigaret break -- but there's a no smoking sign. Situational Irony.
And so on.
So to anyone who says the song isn't ironic, please explain.

So ... basically if the Flames are playing the Islanders at home and get beat then it's situational irony? A plane is delayed, it's dituational irony? A freak weather occurence= situational irony? Having a cup of tea in the morning instead of your usual coffee = situational irony? Broken traffic lights = irony? Sounds like every little mishap is ironic. Road traffic accidents, train/plane crashes. Murders. Twin towers ...............
To continue from Gozer ..
Spoons - stupid. Who keeps that many spoons?
Cigarette - Pain in the arse for the smoker.
