Green Book Lyrics by Steely Dan

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
