"That was Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell, a song in which Joni complains they 'Paved paradise to put up a parking lot', a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise, something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn't quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Nevertheless, nice song." Disagree with Alan that it is a nice song, but those fucking lyrics are beyond annoying. I love New Order but some of their lyrics are beyond shite and annoy me because the music they are set to are amazing: Every Second Counts - "Every second counts when I am with you - I think you are a pig - you should be in a zoo." Your Silent face - "You've caught me at a bad time so why don't you piss off."
