"My Ferret Boys"   (tune: "Londonderry Air," thanks to St. Patrick)
    a love song to Monty and Madison from Kate Pappas, March 17, 1999
 
My ferret boys, my ferret boys are playing
I hear the sounds of scratching in the chair
My ferret boys, my ferret boys are saying
That I can't know all that they've hidden under there.
 
A pillowcase, some pens, a set of house keys
Old paper bags, nail clippers, a lost glove
My ferret boys, they're such accomplished little thieves
They stole my heart, and every day they steal my love.
