Lyrics
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 got 'til it's gone They paved paradise and put up a parking lot Oh, bop, bop, bop Oh, 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 Oh, bop, bop, bop Oh, bop, bop, bop 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 That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone They paved paradise and put up a parking lot Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot Oh, bop, bop, bop Why not? Oh, bop, bop, bop 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 '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 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 Oh, bop, bop, bop Oh, bop, bop, bop I don't wanna give it Why you wanna give it Why you wanna giving it all away Hey, hey, hey Now you wanna give it I should wanna give it 'Cause you're givin it all away I don't wanna give it Why you wanna give it Why you wanna giving it all away Givin, givin it all Givin it all away Why do you want me? Why do you want me? 'Cause you're givin it all away Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot
