In an instant I'm a famous lyricist (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
tim rice
'a famous lyricist' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'in an instant i'm' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'an instant' becomes 'trice' (both can mean a short amount of time).
'trice' going around 'im' is 'TIM RICE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for tim rice that I've seen is " Chess writer".)
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
