[00:48.29]You know pop goes the weasel
[00:50.36]For years I've wondered
[00:51.27]What that meant
[00:52.02]And nobody seemed to know
[00:52.99]So I looked it up
[00:54.38]And the official explanation
[00:55.62]Goes something like this
[00:56.87]Pop goes the weasel refers to
[00:58.72]The habit of London hatters long ago
[01:01.4]Popping or pawning their weasels
[01:04.57]Or accessories on Saturday night
[01:08.]To buy liquor isn't that interesting
[01:12.25]Up and down the city road
[01:15.8]In and out of the eagle
[01:19.62]That's the way the money goes
[01:23.52]Pop goes the weasel
[01:27.7]But you know
[01:28.93]I've got a theory of my own
[01:31.22]About pop goes the weasel
[01:33.05]It's much simpler
[01:35.15]Why did the weasel go pop go pop
[01:40.1]Pop pop goes the weasel
[01:43.02]Why did the weasel go pop
[01:46.33]'Cause they upped the price
[01:48.43]Of tuppenny rice to four pence
[01:50.72]How did the pop get into the weasel
[01:54.67]Weasel pop goes the weasel
[01:58.53]How did the pop get in there
[01:61.73]Well the weasel caught his
[01:63.88]Beakle in the treacle
[01:65.88]Now if you've got a weasel
[01:69.42]And you don't want him to pop
[01:73.53]The next time you go shopping
[01:76.95]Don't you take him in the shop
[01:80.37]Two three four
[01:81.83]Half a pound of tuppenny rice
[01:85.58]Half a pound of treacle
[01:88.57]Now that is the way
[01:90.87]That the money goes
[01:93.25]Pop goes the weasel
[01:97.37]Every night when I go out
[02:00.8]The weasel's sitting on the table
[02:04.17]Now I take a stick
[02:06.68]And I knock it off
[02:09.28]Pop goes the weasel
[02:13.08]Up and down the city road
[02:16.72]In and out of the eagle
[02:20.8]That's the way the money goes
[02:24.83]Pop goes the weasel
[02:27.2]Together now
[02:28.65]Half a pound of tuppenny rice
[02:32.43]Half a pound of treacle
[02:35.25]Now I mix it up
[02:37.57]And I make it nice
[02:39.92]Pop pop pop goes the weasel
[02:44.18]Pop pop pop goes the weasel
