I first learned about the concept of “green with envy” back in 6th grade listening to “You Can’t Do That” Beatles’ lyrics: ♪♫"Everybody’s green, cause I’m the one who won your love. But if they’d seen you talking that way, they’d laugh in my face." ♫♪

How did green get associated with envy anyhow? I look good in green.

Adding a comma might help, as in someone is green, with envy.

Actually, if you put in a comma, that is what that phrase would mean.
