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 till it’s gone |
| They paved paradise and put up a parking lot |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop, shoo-bop-bop-bop |
| They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum |
| And then they charged all the poeple twenty-five bucks just to see 'em |
| 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 |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop, shoo-bop-bop-bop |
| Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT now |
| 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’ve got till it’s gone |
| They paved paradise and they put up a parking lot |
| I say, they paved paradise and they put up a parking lot |
| Don’t it always seem to go That you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone |
| They paved paradise and they put up a parking lot |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop |
| Late last night I heard the screen door slam |
| And a big yellow taxi carried off my old man |
| Don’t it always seem to go That you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone |
| They paved paradise and they put up a parking lot |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop |
| Don’t it always seem to go That you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone |
| They paved paradise and they put up a parking lot |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop |
| Oh, now, they paved paradise and they put up a parking lot |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop |
| Hey, steam rolled paradise and put up a parking lot |
| Shoo-bop-bop-bop-bop |
