[Sweets is wandering into the game room, just looking for something to do after the long day. Maybe he'll play some video games. Maybe he'll just play some music. He isn't entirely sure yet, but he's stopping when he passes one of the tables and spots an old cowboy figurine that's lying around.

He can't help it. He gives a bit of a smile. As he goes to pick it up. and then he feels a bit ... inspired]

♪ Wish I was, yeah, a wild west hero. ♪

[there's a pause, and he continues walking into the room]

♪ Sometimes I look up high and then I think there might, just be a better life.
Away from all we know, that's where I wanna go out on the wild side. ♪

[Xander happens to be in the gameroom already, so when he sees his pal Sweets come in he perks up a bit. But he pauses when he starts singing, and from where he's standing across the way he chimes in...]

♪ And I wish I was, o-oo-o-oh, a wild west hero. ♪

[he starts to walk towards Sweets.]

♪ Ride the range all the day till the first fading light,
be with my western girl round the fire, oh, so bright. ♪

[joins him on chorus, maybe even harmonizing a bit, before finishing it with him]

♪ I'd be the Indians friend, let them live to be free,
ridin' into the sunset, I wish I could be. ♪

Although I can understand the sentiment, I would argue that the song discusses an idealized culture, as portrayed in the Westerns of the 1940s and 50s rather than actual frontier life.

I know that, Dr. Brennan. It was just a song.
