They paved pa rodise
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've got
TiI it's gone
They paved pa rodise

Puf up a parking lot
They took all the trees

Put 'em in
A free 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
TiI it's gone
Hey fa rmer, fa rmer

Puf away that DDT now
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know

What you've got
TiI it's gone
Late last night
I heard the

Screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi

Took away my old man
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know

What you've got
TiI it's gone
I said,
Don't it always seem to go

That you don't know
What you've got
TiI ifs gone
They paved pa rodise

Puf up a parking lot
They paved pa radise

Put up a parking lot
A-ha ha ho ha ha
