Today’s challenge is to come up with new lyrics for “I want a hippopotamus for Christmas.” You can see the lyrics here.
…and of course, the video and audio for the song below.

Here’s my take – see if we can get the rhythm just so…
Enjoy!
I want to visit sub-space for Christmas.
I want to visit sub-space for Christmas
Bring on the lights and flashes, please
Just need a glimpse, no long session needed,
I want to visit now, I’ve been a real good boy
I want to visit sub-space for Christmas
Do you think we can use the clamps tonight?
I promise not to scream, I know what to do
Just say the magic words, please
Bring on all the feels
I can feel it now, washing over me
that feeling that I love
Ouch that really hurts, what a surprise,
When I open up my eyes
To see a blindfold hiding them.
I want to visit sub-space for Christmas
Only magically sub-space will do
No half-way there, no teasing space,
I only want to head straight for sub-space
I can hear sub-space calling me, tooooo
I can see me now, floating through that space
Impact toys and pinchy things will do
Oh what fun, to make new marks
When I get tomorrow, I may just wince
But your sadist side will soon have its fill
I want to visit sub-space for Christmas
Only magically sub-space will do
No half-way there, no teasing space,
I only want to head straight for sub-space
I can hear sub-space calling me, tooooo
No crocodiles, or rhinoceruses!
I only like hippopotamuses!
(I might’ve sung that sun a time or 97.)
It’s a bit catchy, for sure!
