Space Dream

I'm in a movie set in space, and Isaac is there too - there's just been an explosion, and Isaac has been injured, air leaking from his suit - I'm holding him to comfort him.

He looks up at me weakly and says "Dad, sing me a song"

I start to techno beatbox "Doot-sss-doot-sss-doot-sss" quite poorly

Isaac says "no dad, like this:" and starts to sing sadly and sweetly.

"I'm a cucumber
I'm a cucumber
I'm a cucumber
I'm a cucumber
I'm a cucumber
I'm a cucumber
Please don't take me to the pickle farm!"

He closes his eyes and I wake up.

(This song is from a 2000s animation called The Brak Show, and it's ridiculous in its original form)
