A Blackpool Caricature
If you should venture out to Blackpool, you'll not be aloneThere's stars a plenty- then and now- that have made this place their ownWe've hosted shows fit for the Queen, held conferences of menWe've born more than our share of heroes and we're doing it againThis is the home of entertainment- Las Vegas of the NorthRelease your inner self's constraints on our miles of sandy shoresBe the next Charlie Cairoli, be a Peter KayDo your take on old George Formby on your summer holidayReturn and play an entire season- be Joey Blower, Chubby BrownHere is a place where fun is the reason- a bustling seaside townA town that's played host to the Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Judas PriestIn the place that made the Stone Roses famous, take a stroll along the beach.Be Little Boots, be a Pet Shop Boy, be the Nolan familyBe Jimmy Armfield, England captain- score a hat trick like Morty at WembleyBuild a dynasty like Owen Oyston or Basil Newby, MBE. Be Shelley Woods breaking physical boundaries, let your dreams take flight like Amy JohnsonBuild a pleasure palace like the Thompsons and spin till you want to get off.This is Blackpool, the laughter industry beacon- forget Edinburgh with its two weeks of seasonWe're better, we're bigger and we're bloody not beaten and so if we are going to existHow does your name fit onto this list?
