..When you smoke all my weed, man
you gots to call the green man...
That's a line from Addicted, do you know what she means with "green man"?
At first i thought that she meant a police men, but the police in great britain doesn't wear green uniforms like the police men in germany.
Does someone know the meaning of it? :-P

Wikipedia:
A Green Man is a sculpture, drawing, or other representation of a face surrounded by or made from leaves. Branches or vines may sprout from the nose, mouth, nostrils or other parts of the face and these shoots may bear flowers or fruit. Commonly used as a decorative architectural ornament, Green Men are frequently found on carvings in churches and other buildings (both secular and ecclesiastical). "The Green Man" is also a popular name for English public houses and various interpretations of the name appear on inn signs, which sometimes show a full figure rather than just the head.
