Song by Counting Crows feat. Vanessa Carlton<br /><br>

(written by Joni Mitchell )<br>

<br>

[Adam Duritz]<br>

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot<br>

With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot<br>

Don't it always seem to go <br>

That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone<br>

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot<br>

<br>

[Vanessa Carlton]<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

<br>

[Adam]<br>

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum<br>

And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them<br>

No, no, no<br>

Don't it always seem to go<br>

That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone<br>

They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot<br>

<br>

[Vanessa]<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

<br>

[Adam]<br>

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT<br>

I don't care about spots on my apples,<br>

Leave me the birds and the bees<br>

Please<br>

Don't it always seem to go<br>

That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone<br>

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot<br>

Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot<br>

Why not?<br>

<br>

[Vanessa]<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

<br>

[Adam]<br>

Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam<br>

And a big yellow taxi took my girl away<br>

Don't it always seem to go<br>

That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone<br>

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot<br>

Well, don't it always seem to go<br>

That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone<br>

They paved paradise to put up a parking lot<br>

Why not?<br>

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot<br>

Hey hey hey<br>

Paved paradise and put up a parking lot<br>

<br>

[Vanessa]<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

Ooooh, bop bop bop<br>

<br>

[Adam, Vanessa]<br>

I don't wanna give it<br>

Why you wanna give it<br>

Why you wanna giving it all away<br>

Hey, hey, hey<br>

Now you wanna give it<br>

I should wanna give it<br>

Now you wanna giving it all away<br>

<br>

Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot<br>

<br>
