Hey there green one
You know who are
Hiding away in the dark from him
Hey you obsessive green one
The light from this club is no protection from where you’ve been
Hey there green one how about a lime for your liquor
It helps with the burn they say
To my green one:
Keep hiding away
Until you gamble that green love away
Cuz He doesn’t want you
Already know who you are and you can bet that he knows too
Don’t listen to white lies green one
He’s onto you
On...on to you, to you
Olive green
Olive green
Olive green
I know you
In your emerald dress
With those paper seams
Tearing away at your truth
He doesn’t want you
Already know who you are and you can bet that he knows too
Don’t listen to white lies green one
Because he’s onto you
On...on to you, to you
Hey there green one
Eating that caviar
and the mint in your mouth almost threw
Hey you money colored green one
Piping on your cigar, soaking the smoke in your flames as it fumes
Olive green
Olive green
Olive green
I know you
In your emerald dress
With those paper seams
Tearing away at your truth
He doesn’t want you
Already know who you are and you can bet that he knows too
Don’t listen to white lies green one
Because he’s onto you
On on to you, to you
Olive green
Olive green
Drink that martini for two, because
Ms. Olive green
Ms. Olive green
Ms. Olive green
He’s never returning to you
To you
To you
To you...
is this about a superficial girl, money hungry, and hoping the man she "loves" will come back to her. She does not really love him, she loves what he is, and the money attached to him. She has an emrald dress with paper seams. The dress is not real, as paper seams would tear so easily. She is on the verge of ruin and hoping he will come save her. but he won't because he knows what she is now.
ReplyDeleteHmm...that's an interesting interpretation.
ReplyDeleteThe woman in this song that I am writing about is actually "Jealousy" itself. The jealousy that all of us try to hide when in a new relationship.
A lot of the times the man we are with is longing to know that our jealousy does exist...to confirm that we actually feel something for them.
But often, expressing this side of you leaves your vulnerable...you are admitting to love and then putting yourself at risk to get hurt.
So don't listen to the "white lies" that your man may tell you about it being okay to show your jealousy for him...because often times, they will lose interest in you...or be turned away by your insecurity (your jealousy) and you will lose the power in the relationship that you held before, due to your mystery.
