Big Yellow Taxi
Joni Mitchell

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
And you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

They took all the trees
And put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people
A dollar and a half to seem them
Don't it always seem to go,
And you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Hey Farmer Farmer
Put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples
Leave me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always seem to go
And you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Listen late last night
I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi
Took my girl away
Now, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Hey now, now
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone
They paved paradise
To put up a parking lot

They paved paradise
To put a parking lot

Paved paradise
Put up a parking lot
