Tonight you're the new Hemingway
Find a station in a station bar
meet the latest Smollett or Scobie
but in case the last bells toll
or a non-polymath kicks off early
stay close to the railway door

Sup up your mead
leave the round table
get on Sir Galahad the talking horse
but only if your character is able
Whoa there it's spent way too long i
n the old vale sanctuary snug
instead of the pantomime stable.

Theres a Bruce McLookalike
at the Surrogate Domino table
Playing with his partner's best wishes
from near the old homestead range
he's helping Cybil with the dishes
But moonlighting through the ether .

Be the best version of someone else
someone famous that fits like a glove
Keep those gloves on move them fast hands
like Ali, Skeets or perhaps a Buchanan
Defensive stance so you don't get harmed
Remember your wearing mothers slow arms.

Its escapism son said Dali Salividoris
allow your character room for some gravitas
to grow and breathe over extended pub hours
through whisky interludes and continental beers
stay with the play and bounce off the players
enviroment friendly or it will all end in tears.

CHORUS:
Get your cartoon head on
but keep it real In character,
outside not and unbelievable
Through the saloon doors
like the main deal
But whatever you do don't go too far
in the wild world of the wide spiel
and get lost within your cowboy avatar
