Big Yellow Taxi (featuring Vanessa Carlton) Lyrics

[Adam Duritz]
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

[Vanessa Carlton]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh,
bop bop bop

[Adam]
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

[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop
bop

[Adam]
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
Why not?

[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh,
bop bop bop

[Adam]
Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door
slam
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Now 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

[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop
bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Adam, Vanessa]
I don't wanna give
it
Why you wanna give it
Why you wanna giving it all away
Hey, hey,
hey
x2
Now you wanna give it
I should wanna give it
Now you wanna
giving it all away

Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking
lot

[Vanessa]
Why you wan it?
