Aloha From Paradise!

They want to pave paradise and put up a parking lot

They want to pave 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
‘Til it's gone
They want to paradise
And put up a parking lot?

SAVE TRESTLES ITS THE LAST WE GOT!

They took all the trees
And put them in a tree museum
Then 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
‘Til it’s gone
They want to pave paradise
And put up a parking lot?

SAVE TRESTLES ITS THE LAST WE GOT!

Hey farmer, farmer
Put away that DDT now
Give me spots on my apples
But LEAVE me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you’ve got
‘Til its gone
They want to pave paradise
And put up a parking lot?

SAVE TRESTLES ITS THE LAST WE GOT!

Late last night
I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi
Come and took away my old man
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you’ve got
‘Til it’s gone
They want to pave paradise
And put up a parking lot?!?!?

SAVE TRESTLES ITS THE LAST WE GOT!

I said
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you’ve got
‘Til it’s gone
They want to pave paradise
And put up a parking lot!?!?!?

SAVE TRESTLES ITS THE LAST WE GOT!

Don't let them pave paradise
And put up a parking lot
Save paradise!!

SAVE TRESTLES ITS THE LAST WE GOT!!!
