put up a Parking Lot with Apartments & a Swinging Hot Spot
Link to Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell 1970
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’ve got Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
They took all the trees
Put ’em in a tree museum
And they charged the people
A dollar and a half just to see ’em
Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
Hey council member, keep us safe
On the coast keep open space
Take the condos and bars
And put them in another place.
Late last night
I heard the gun shots bam
And a big EMS
Took away my old man
Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
