Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique and a swingin' hot spot
Chorus:
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
They took all the trees, put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em
Chorus
Hey farmer farmer, put away that D.D.T. now
Give me spots on my apples but leave me the birds and the bees
please
Chorus
Late last night I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took away my old man
Chorus Twice
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot (choo bop bop bop bop)
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
