I think he wrote this song from a seat on an airplane. It sounds to me like he's talking about looking down on earth. He's "feeling green"... feeling sick. He's tasting recycled air which is exactly how the air in airplanes is.
I agree with all of these ideas. That's the beauty of lyrics- they can mean whatever you'd like them to. The only different idea I have is that green to me means turned on/horny. Has anyone else ever heard that? It very well could mean envious but since it follows with talking about teenage lovers I figured he's turned on by whatever the subject is. That's why I think it's mostly about sex.

However, the idea of marijuana struck me too. That fits perfectly, although I don't see Ben writing about that, haha.

I think whatever it is, he's...
I think whatever it is, he's doing something he isn't necessarily proud of. The way he sings "ba ba ba ba" it just sounds like he's just kinda going with it. Like he's cautious, but still moving. In most of his songs the "ba ba" s are different. I think that since a lady sings with him ( I know jenny did in a version I heard, but I'm not sure about the official version), it probably means it's about a relation ship. Think of other songs sang with women: the district sleeps alone, nothing better, etc. They're all about a relationship he's had. There are exeptions of course but that's generally true. Since she just repeats what he says and doesn't have her own lyrics, I'm thinking she doesn't have a lot of argument or say at all in this. She has mutual feelings. I think that's an important part ofit.
Now for a total off the wall idea of mine that's not true I'm sure and everyones going to attack:
Okay, so if green means envy or that he's turned on, I still don't understand the "from here they can't see me stare part" unless I think he's watching people have sex. I know, crazy. I was thinking he's probably masturbating or something if you compare it to some parts. I feel the knuckles clenched part supports that and so does the inflation part. He's high because he's getting off to other people having sex. He's jealous though that it can't be him with someone else. And recycled air could just be him breathing really hard because of what he's doing.
I know you're thinking I'm a pervert now, haha but it makes sense. Especially since none of the other ideas talk about the line "from here they can't see me stare"
I totally agree, because ben is singing this though, that it's about virginity loss or sex with someone else though. This is, after all, for free thought so I just thought I'd throw it out there.
