Big Yellow Taxi
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot...

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people all a dollar and a half just to see 'em....
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey farmer farmer put away that DDT
Give me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Late last night I heard a screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man...
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got til it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
