Written for Songfight in March, 2004. 

————————————————————————————

Lavender Splendor when I call your name

Double the chances that you feel the same

Triple the wages and I think I’m game

Lavender Splendor never shows no shame

Lavender Splendor is what I became

Like a mirrored fedora on a pink John Wayne

Or some caviar, oysters and a fried plantain

Lavender Splendor flowing through my veins
