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've got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people a dollar and a half to see them
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
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Hey, farmer, farmer, put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
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
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Late last night, I heard they arrested a man
But they couldn't stop the rebels from glueing themselves to the van
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa
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've got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
They took all the trees and put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people a dollar and a half to see them
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
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Hey, farmer, farmer, put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
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
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Late last night, I heard they arrested a man
But they couldn't stop the rebels from glueing themselves to the van
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa-pa
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Shoe-pa-pa-pa
