[Adam Duritz]
They paved paradise & put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, & a swingin´ hot spot
Don´t it always seem to go
That you do not know what you got ´til it is gone
They paved paradise & put up a parking lot
[Vanessa Carlton]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam]
They took all the trees, & put ´em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar & a half to see them
No, no, no
Don´t it always seem to go
That you do not know what you got ´til it is gone
They paved paradise, & put up a parking lot
[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam]
Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I do not care about spots on my apples,
Leave me the birds & the bees
Please
Don´t it always seem to go
That you do not know what you got ´til it is gone
They paved paradise & 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 do not know what you got ´til it is gone
They paved paradise & put up a parking lot
Well, don´t it always seem to go
That you do not know what you got ´til it is gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?
They paved paradise & put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey
Paved paradise & put up a parking lot
[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop
[Adam, Vanessa]
I do not want to give it

Why you want to giving it all away
Hey, hey, hey

Now you want to giving it all away
Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot
[Vanessa]
