[Campbell managed to banish his clone by helping Nepeta, of all things, although he doesn't realise it. He's just back in his flat now, feeling less irritable and sad and he has his guitar back! Which means it is now officially time to do what his clone kept saying he was going to do but never actually did.

He's sitting on his bed wearing The Worst Shirt In The World, which he actually managed to find here in shops. Somehow.]

Hey, you lot! I dunno if you know me or not by now, but I'm Campbell Bain and I play guitar for Time Bomb! I'm a DJ, really, but that doesn't mean I don't know what I'm doing cos... [and here he works himself up, grinning crazily] ...I wrote a song! And I'm gonna show it you all now.

[He whips up his (or, rather, Curt's) guitar from beside him on the bed and starts in on the song. He sings the whole thing in a bit of an American accent because tht is how rock works, right?]

I like the loony asylum: it makes me feel safe
And doncha know
This whole City's an asylum and you won't ever escape
But why'd I ever wanna leave here?
Yeah I got all the things I need, here.
So I'll deal with this place even though I may be locked inside my brain

I might as well live inside my head
It ain't safe in here honey but
Who said the real world is?

Living here's exciting babe, cos you never know what's gonna come
Who wants certainty yeah everyone knows chaos is what's fun
Back home there's folk who can't take this
I'm here I'm already famous
And I'm only getting started I'm gonna keep going and I ain't ever gonna be done

I might be outside of reality
But I'm free from it here, honey
It ain't got nothing on me

[He speaks over playing the chords again.] And there'd be a guitar solo here. Only I cannae play two guitars at once...or...guitar solos. So just imagine one.

I'm gonna stay here forever
I'm gonna stay here forever
You and me baby together
I'm gonna stay here forever

I'm gonna stay here forever
Awww who even really gets forever?
You and me baby, together
I'm gonna stay here forever

I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna stay

I might as well live inside my head
It ain't safe in here honey but
Who said the real world is

I might as well live inside my head
It ain't safe in here honey but
Who said the real world is?

[He lets the final chord ring and then leans forward over the guitar, grinning.]

So? Whaddya think?


[ooc: In a classic case of me getting carried away, here is me singing the song on YouTube. Yes, I wrote a song in character. What of it? >.>

Also, fairly obviously, I HAVE A LAPTOP NOW. LIFE IS GOOD.]
