I wouldn't know a Prince of Wales check
from a health check, but I'm sure you look very professional.

I'm motivating myself by imagining how good it will be once I'm finished work and able to go home and enjoy myself. The 'light at the end of the tunnel' technique.

Yeah I've wanted to learn since I was a kid
So I'm going to have a little go tonight and see if I reckon it's worth bothering with.

Even if you're crap at first attempt
(and you very likely will struggle to get anything resembling a single note on the first night), don't give up. Learning a musical instrument requires a huge effort, but is very rewarding.

And you can then have a fall back career as a busker.

I think you'll find it's pronounced 'sexophone.'
Joking aside, good luck; I tried to learn a few years ago and I now have a cheap alto sax sitting in a case just gathering dust. Though this is partly because I daren't toot the horn in the house - those things are louder than next door's tantrum-prone sprog...
