Pop Goes the Weasel
'Round and 'round the cobbler's bench
The monkey chased the weasel;
The monkey thought 'twas all in fun.
Pop! Goes the weasel.
A penny for a spool of thread,
A penny for a needle;
That's the way the money goes.
Pop! Goes the weasel.
Half a pound of tuppenny rice,
Half a pound of treacle;
Mix it up and make it nice.
Pop! Goes the weasel.
Up and down the City road,
In and out of the Eagle;
That's the way the money goes.
Pop! Goes the weasel.
I've no time to plead and pine,
I've no time to wheedle;
Kiss me quick and then I'm gone.
Pop! Goes the weasel.
