Текст песни Big Yellow Taxi - Counting Crows , Vanessa Carlton

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 ′til 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
