"Green Limousine" was the third single from Get on Board, the 1993 debut album by Australian band the Badloves, issued that November, and early in the new year it reached 35 on the ARIA singles chart. Michael Spiby wrote it.

By the band's own account in the liner notes, it's a wry poke at celebrities who leap aboard whatever cause happens to be in fashion, and it tips its hat to vintage soul. It didn't come quickly: they spent 12 hours recording it, starting from a poppy soul arrangement and peeling layers away until the song stood stripped back.
