Sung to the song Mama Said.

Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset  
(marmoset, marmoset)  
Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset  
(marmoset, marmoset)

I went walking the other day,  
Saw marmosets on my trip,  
Imagined marmosets being horny  
So I fixed them with a cut and snip

Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset  
(marmoset, marmoset)  
Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset

My eyes are wide open  
But that is all I can see  
A veterinarian’s apocryphal dream  
But I don’t worry cause

Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset  
(marmoset, marmoset)  
Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset

And then I fixed my baby marmoset  
Like I’m sure to fix more someday.  
Under the knife  
It won’t happen any old way,  
Prayers won’t stop it now, cause

Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset  
(marmoset, marmoset)  
Marmosets can be spade like this  
Can be spade like this my marmoset  
(marmoset, marmoset)

Hey! Don’t get snippy,  
Marmoset Marmoset  
Hey! Don’t get snippy now.  
Marmoset Marmoset.  
Hey! Hey!  
HUGS!  
Sqrl

One thing about our SqrlCub… he’s got the courage to call a spayed a spade. 😃  
Kids, don’t try this at home!

He met marmoset down in old New Orleans.  
Struttin’ his stuff on the street.  
He said, “Hello, hey Joe, you wanna give it a go?”  
Callithrix jacchus jacchus, ya ya.  
Callithrix jacchus jacchus, heah.  
Don’t you call me monkey, ya ya.  
Creole little marmoset.

Sorry, couldn’t get that tune out of my head ever since I saw this thread titile.
