The Lyrics

If you do not know the OS, a low bit-rate MP3 can be found here

Spoken: (For parodyett-y snack: we'd like to thank small & red treacled friends all sugared and roundy for all the fruitiful confections - we munch ya)

Teeny toppers, ice creamy hov'rers
They're balls that taste so nice
They set my tongue to slaverin'
They look so cute 'pon each scoop
Tasty lil' cerise spheres of good humour

Glazed mini fruits in sweet red suits
Have whipped cream as their bed
When intertwined in Mocha'rin'
Crimson-y glow, apropos
E-nam-oured are we with maraschino

Maraschino, maraschino
Where eyesight can prove:
They're globular and rotundy!
Essential for heaps of frozen treats
Chopped nuts atop sun-daes with maraschino

(Ap-ply 'em, yummy!)

(Yeah!)

Like banana, if you split it
Though they're usu'lly rouge, they be had in vert too
Ah, graced a-bove a cone, or on their own
Sundry are avails of maraschino

Maraschino, maraschino
Plain ice's much improved
When with Cool Whip they're adorning
Adrift in float made with Coke
Hot fudge atop parfait with maraschino
Maraschino, maraschino, maraschino

Sweet. Clever pun on '"in vert." As usual, I'm green with envy.
