Máire Brennan Big Yellow Taxi Lyrics

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hotspot

[Chorus:]
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

They took all the trees
And put them in a tree museum
And they charged all the people
A dollar and a half just to see them

[Chorus]

Hey, farmer, farmer
Put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please!

[Chorus]

Late last night
I heard a screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi
Took away my old man

[Chorus 2x]

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
