Great campaign song for Gore! I know,I know, too early but I can't help it
Edited on Tue May-09-06 10:59 PM by Pirate Smile
It keeps running through my head when I listen to it on my IPod so I thought I would share.

Isn't that what we are supposed to do in the Groups Forums? Yep.

"Big Yellow Tax" otherwise know thought of as "Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone" or "They paved paradise and put up a Parking Lot".

It is an environmental song plus it reminds you of the Clinton-Gore years, and causes some comparison to the Bush agonizing years (from The Onion Bush: 'Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over'



They paved 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
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

They took all the trees
Put ’em in a tree 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
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

Hey farmer farmer
Put away that d.d.t. 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
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

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
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot



edit to add - I also want the Dems to do an ad for the '06 campaign using Sheryl Crowe's "Change will do you good", having her refrain playing over and over with a listing of all the Republican misdeeds and incompetence showing on the screen over pics showing their failures.
