Big Yellow Taxi Skateboard Song

The 'Big Yellow Taxi' is in for an oil change. Apologies to Joni Mitchell.


She paid over the dough 
      
and bought the big Arbor Blunt



with a drawing board and a laser tape


she was ready to do them stunts


Don't it always seem to go


That you don't know what you've got


‘Til it's gone


So they paved Taafe Place


And put up a skateboarding lot




She had all the gear

to wear with some style and pan’ache



looked a million bucks


but it didn’t really involve much cash


Don't it always seem to go,


That you don't know what you've got


‘Til it's gone


They paved Brooklyn


And put up a skateboarding lot




Hey, Hannah spanner


Put away that attitude now


Do a fancy jump and some turns

but watch out for that kerb and truck



Sucks!


Don't it always seem to go


That you don't know what you've got


‘Til its gone


They paved New York


And put up a skateboarding lot




On the streets


the crowds, stood around and watched


as long-board Hannah cruised by


wearing headphones and bright pink socks


Don't it always seem to go


That you don't know what you've got


‘Til it's gone


They paved USA


And put up a skateboarding lot




I said


Don't it always seem to go


That you don't know what you've got


‘Til it's gone


They paved everywhere


And put up a skateboarding lot




They paved The World


And put up a skateboarding lot


They paved Planet Earth


And put up a skateboarding lot
