Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics - Singles - Vanessa Carlton

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot 

With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' 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 

Ooooh, bop bop bop 

Ooooh, bop bop bop 

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum 

And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them 

No, no, no 

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 your DDT 

I don't care about spots on my apples, 

Leave me the birds and the bees

Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam 

And a big yellow taxi took my girl away 

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 

Well, 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 

Why not? 

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot 

Hey hey hey 

Paved paradise and put up a parking lot 

Ooooh, bop bop bop 

Ooooh, bop bop bop
