[Verse 1]
I am the lavender lighter
I started out in New York
Lighting a cigarette
For a tip-top model

[Verse 2]
She took me to Miami
Where I lit up the joint
For some teenage guy
First time getting high

[Chorus]
I never know what I'll be gettin' into
I gotta glow no matter what I do
I can't control who I'll be handed to
Cause everybody needs a light

[Verse 3]
I am the lavender lighter
I found myself in Malibu
Starting a barbecue
Ending up in the pool

[Verse 4]
I dried out and took a red-eye to Tahiti
And kissed the torch of a tiki dancer
Got smuggled far away
Made a fire in a Brazilian bay
[Chorus]
I never know what I'll be gettin' into
I gotta glow no matter what I do
I can't control who I'll be handed to
Cause everybody needs a light

[Bridge]
Everyone needs me
Everyone gets me
Everyone uses me
Oh but I don't mind
I'm not blind
Must be the spark inside of me

[Verse 5]
I am the lavender lighter
I started out in New York
Lighting a cigarette
But my light is now fading

[Chorus]
I never know what I'll be gettin' into
I gotta glow no matter what I do
I can't control who I'll be handed to
Cause everybody needs a light
I never know what I'll be gettin' into
I gotta glow no matter what I do
I can't control who I'll be handed to
Cause everybody needs a light

[Outro]
I am the lavender li-
I am the lavender li-
I am the lavender li-
I am the lavender lighter
