Lyrics for Green Book as interpreted by mik91

Green Book Lyrics
My coat is black and the moon is yellow
Here is where I get off
As you can see for yourself old girl in the Green Book

I tango down to the smoky lobby
My eyes adjust to the light
The new cashier looks like Jill St. John
Can that be right?

I'm rolling into the bar at Joey's
They're getting ready to close
Here she comes very Kiss Me Deadly
My life, my love, my third hand rose

Flash ahead to a yummy playback
Just you and me in a room
Double dreaming a page at a time in the Green Book

The torso rocks and the eyes are keepers
Now where'd we sample those legs?
I'm thinking Marilyn 4.0 in the
Green Book

I like the neon I love the music
Anachronistic but nice
The seamless segue from fun to fever
It's a sweet device

I'm so in love with this dirty city
This crazy grid of desire
The festive icons along the way
The boardwalk, the lovers, the house on fire

She's kind of cute but a little younger
She's got the mood and the moves
It's kinda scary to dig yourself in the Green Book

I think this song is about some sort of place or item (Green Book) where you can create your own fantasy. Kind of like in "Total Recall", you can choose where, her torse, eyes, legs... the "Marilyn 4.0" makes it seem like technology, one of the original fantasys or the 4th version to look like Marylin Monroe... "double dreaming a page at a time" maybe doing a little too much.

Looks like the narrator wanted his girl to have Maryln Monroe's legs. There's a lot of recording studio references here, like playbacks, samplings, keepers... etc...

I am very confused about this book, and i cannot make it fit entirely with the "green books" in real life (perhaps the cd-thing?). But nevertheless, this is one smooooooooth song.

I meant "song", not book. Too much thinking messes up the system.
