All my limbs are bound
And my legs a-splay
I’ve been on this bench
On a spanking day
I feel safe and warm
When I get whacked this way
On all fours ‘n’ screamin’
On such a spanking day
Up here on my perch
How we pass the day
I get weak in the knees
When he starts to flay
You know my husband likes the heat
He knows I’m gonna stay
On all fours ‘n’ screamin’
On such a spanking day
All my limbs are bound
And my legs a-splay
I’ve been on this bench
On a spanking day
If he is here with me
It’ll be OK
On all fours ‘n’ screamin’
On such a spanking day
On such a spanking day
On such a spanking day

I love that “safe and warm” works for both!
Love it Bonnie, very clever. Love "safe and warm" too

I love the original version of this and this version too. Pity that we cannot find someone to perform it.

Love the Mamas and the Papas, and I love this! ♥
I'll never hear one of my favourite songs without thinking of this parody. Well done, Bonnie!
Hugs,

Anon - I love when I can use the the original words or something close. When I can't do that, because I have my own story to tell, I try to match the beats and select words that sound like the original lyrics. So "leaves are brown" becomes "limbs are bound," and so forth.
Roz - Thank you. This was a fairly easy song to parody. Most of the lines have five beats and there is just one rhyme that runs all the way through.
Prefectdt - Alas, Michelle is the only one left. There is, however, there is a lovely cover version by Sia.
Erica - Me too. I grew up in a place that was gray all winter and wished I could live where the weather was always nice (at least that's what the brochure said!).
Hermione - Thank you! The other factor that made this an easy song for me was the memorable tune. It ran through my head the entire time. I didn't have to play the original once to get the sound right.
As a seeker of spanking parodies, I love this takeoff on one of the songs I often heard as a child as sung by Judith Durham.
