Big yellow taxi

Lyrics
[Verse 1: 9 volt] 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

[Hook: penny crygor] Ooooh, bop bop bop Ooooh, bop bop bop

[9 volt] They took all the trees, and put them in a tree museum And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them No, no, no

[Chorus: 9 volt] 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

[Hook: penny crygor] Ooooh, bop bop bop Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Verse 2: 9 volt] Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT I don't care about spots on my apples Leave me the birds and the bees Please

[Chorus: 9 volt] 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! They paved paradise, to put up a parking lot

[Hook: penny crygor] Ooooh, bop bop bop Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Musical Interlude]

[Bridge: 9 volt] Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam And a big yellow taxi took my girl away

[Chorus: 9 volt] 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 Hey na na, 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

[Hook: penny crygor] Ooooh, bop bop bop Ooooh, bop bop bop

[Bridge - 9 volt] 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 Now you wanna giving it all away I don't wanna give it Why you wanna give it Why you wanna give it all away Hey, hey, hey Now you wanna give it I should wanna give it Now you wanna giving it all away

[Outro - 9 volt] Why do you want me? Why do you want to? Cos' you're givin it all away Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot
