Allday - Big Yellow Taxi (Triple J Like A Version) Lyrics
[The Veronicas:]
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique and a swinging hot spot
[The Veronicas & Allday:]
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop
Oooo-bop-bop-bop)
[The Veronicas:]
They took all the trees, put 'em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
[The Veronicas & Allday:]
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop
Oooo-bop-bop-bop)
[Allday:]
Well I went down the coast but there's no coral reef
'Cause Adani stole the coal so all the corals bleached
So I went to the city but I don't wanna breath
Cause the smog in the air just makes me cough and wheeze
Going stir crazy like Milo, high as trees until it drops me
Thought I had depression but I just needed a coffee
And the Amazon's dying but we got Amazon Prime
Too busy to be angry so they carry on lying
Well there's a plastic island in our ocean that I heard about
We got to turn around this shit before it burns us out
We focus on our differences but we should kill the billionaires
Invest in local businesses, grow potatoes, spinachs
Might need my head checked, might need McAfee
Grew up on some poison, they called it McHappy
I guess you don't don't know what you got till it's packing
And it speeds down the road in a big yellow taxi
[The Veronicas & Allday:]
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop)
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone?
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop)
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop)
They paved paradise, put up a parking lot
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop)
(Oooo-bop-bop-bop)

Wasn't expecting that 2019 verse... nice. Really great cover.
After Matt & Alex left I stopped listening to Like A Version. Y'all got real fancy now. Still a fan.

This song is so good ❤️

Wow, what's more depressing, the crime you made covering this great song or the Veronica's eating disorders?
Amazon really dying though.
Holy shit! Those lyrics are so good!!
Terrible.
still slaps hard
FUUUUUUUUUUUCKing great little rap in the middle
Bump day song.
The whole world needs to hear alldays verse
Wise words there Allday. Well said mate
Allday looks like he'd rather be anywhere but there aha, already pre ordered your album homie
'The Amazon's dyin', but we got Amazon Prime'. Damn.
This is a solid 100 out of 10
so good!
I could have sworn this had more views before
How good! Allday's verse sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it!!
can't stop watching this honesty, allday's verse so good.
I love old mate!! More of him please!! He made it!!
Does allday look like Ron Weasley's shitty little brother?
So good!..They should try 'Footprints in the Snow' EmersonLake&Palmer..
someone tell old mate he doesnt have to wear vinnies clothes ALL DAY.
Allday still looks 14 and the Veronicas look like they've been hanging out with Frenchy, nicely done though, great cover
They make it sound depresssing 😌😔☹
Lisa & Jess 😇
Thanks for helpin me find allday. Ive been jammin him ever since
Absolutely amazing, shed a tear watching this. Loved Allday’s verse
Wise words there Allday. Well said mate
'The Amazon's dyin', but we got Amazon Prime'. Damn.
Omg they fucked up that song!
To be fair, there isn't enough parking! Good job.
Even this shit has anti Adani crap in it!
I love this - and restless - but allday's lyrics are the new mis-heard lyrics of the 10s cos nobody knows what tf he's rapping;singing about. Some clarity and a good tune like restless or this & he would smack it out the park.
Allday looks like he'd rather be anywhere but there aha, already pre ordered your album homie
Courtney Barnett really going for a new sound
ALL DAY THANK YOU WOW THANK YOU. EXECUTED
this is the realest shit i've heard in a while :):
why does allday look so bored though?
SO GOOD <3 <3 <3
allday looks like a giant next to these 2
this is the realest shit i've heard in a while :):
gee this sounds good but gee the veronicas annoy me
Yo please update the Apple Music playlist with this plz.
Guys why doesn't it say counting crows aswell
Cos Counting Crows’ version was a cover too
Had no idea the Veronicas are hobbits.
Damn. Does allday write this stuff himself?
Adam Martin yes!! all his stuff is
My new favourite bed time lullaby... because allday puts me to sleep everyday.
hate this
ALL DAY THANK YOU WOW THANK YOU. EXECUTED
It's so real it's hurts. Love this
This is legit 👌🏻
Absolutely amazing, shed a tear watching this. Loved Allday’s verse
Properly GOOD. Love the understated delivery. Pure class.
The Veronicas are tiny
Lovelyyyyyy
Properly GOOD. Love the understated delivery. Pure class.
Wozu trägt der Junge eine Regenjacke?
please put this on spotify
Amazon dying but we got Amazon Prime, fuck me that is straight truth
Collab' for Eurovision!
Pretty sure this guy is just MattyBRaps in Courtney Barnett's body
The Veronicas are amazing! Sponsoring a homeless middle aged woman, and inviting her to perform with them. We should all be so kind.
He was really good and so was your comment XD
Bomb ! Added to my playlist 💯
What. A. Jam
SO GOOD!!!!
You’ve all been lied to about everything Research “200 proofs” also Fluoride is a poison but everyone thinks it’s good for them, it’s actually a mining waste.
Research “Geo Engineering” which is basically chemtrails but renamed. They spray the sky and poison the water to dumb us down and stop us from reaching our full potential
They aren’t human either they are an Evil race of beings called Reptilians research “The Matrix Reptilian Neo” for more proof.
Research all conspiracy theories.
Please wake up and spread the word and do your own research, stop believing others.
Dafuq did I just read 🤔
Trent from punchy has come a long way!
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL RENDITION!!! Joni would be so proud !
Wow wow wow wow skinny as he'll thats not right
Can someone please get the veronica's a fucking happy meal?
The combination we didn’t know we needed
Aussie Mac Miller
Let's not go that far
Dont ever say that again ,moron
The Veronica's are so petite!
“We focus on our differences but we should kill the billionaires” ...yes 😢
donotberacist lol to the “progressives” who actually think it’s okay to say things like “kill the billionaires”
Fuck this is actually great
This is trash
Spotify please!
The Veronica's should kiss each other
Does Mummy know you have an account Sam?
This is a good cover 🤗
Classic song destroyed by rapping crap.
Why do people think they can do a better version than the original?
Let it go.
Write & perform your own classics.
You understand it's Like A Version not Just A Cover or Must Be Better, right? You sound like you missed the concept. Looking forward to your musical effort though, sounds like you know your.... Stuff.
come back and comment when you actually know what like a version is
Allday is so underrated
I’d never heard Allday before this but damn I’d like to hear some more!
Rose Walters shuffle him on Spotify, dude really does no wrong
idk why allday singing in an australian accent pisses me off
rusty he’s an Aussie m8
Allday is whack man, he might impress anyone who's never heard a rap song before but his soft delivery and whack lyrics are dreadful. Stir crazy like milo?! Lol
If I take my glasses off looks like All-day singin with two primary school age girls. Bloody hell they are tiny!
They used to come into my bottle shop back in 2005 and yes they're both quite short.
Great verse 👌 solid cover! Thanks 🙏🏻
Someone give them a hamburger.
Used to like allday then kinda went away but this definitely sparked the flame for me, this is sick.
This is SO GOOD! Nearly starting crying listening to it on the radio on the drive to work. Thank you for using your platform to talk about the important issues 🌏💖
"Well I went down the coast, but there's no coral reef cause Adani stole the coal, so all the coral's bleached. So I went to the city, but I don't wanna breathe cause the smog in the air just makes me cough and wheeze. Going stir-crazy like Milo. Higher trees till it drops me(?).

Honestly the most poignant and well thought verse, big ups to Allday for this killer cover.
and the timing of it also on point...
Cooliew I’m thinking the lines may be:
“Going stir-crazy like milo, high as trees until it drops me”
“Too busy to be angry so they carry on lyin’”
“Might need my head checked, might need McAfee” (like the antivirus software)
@Emily Silvester that's correct
Yuck, this is making me cringe
Veronica’s heads are to big for there body’s
I love absolutely every single thing about this
Haha skanks
He even wanna be there? Ha.
What is going on with the veronica's looks?
MrDefective anorexia and Botox 😂
Allday looks like Malcom in the middle from a parallel universe
Stik to jingles. Shit version
'The Amazon's dyin', but we got Amazon Prime'. Damn.
So true . Thank you 🙏🏼
Me: Oh, no, another version of Big Yellow Taxi!
Also me: Hell yeah, this is good, different and, actually, sounds really great!
Congratulations, Kids.
